[Haiku Biografi] – [Rike Jokanan]

evening star
bengawan Solo flushed a jar
of placenta away

a nine-month old gal
ran in a speed uncontrolled
ended in a shrub

a wagon full of stuffs
carried tears and friendship away
to another mountain

colorful ribbons fly
overhead of jumpy monkeys
welcoming campus life

wrinkle skin and falling hair

glowing eyes staring at the moon

never ending gratitude

=====

bintang senjakala

bengawan Solo menghanyutkan

sebokor ari-ari

balita sembilan purnama
berlari tanpa haluan
nyungsep di semak

bak mobil penuh barang
bawa sahabat dan air mata
ke gunung nan jauh

berwarna-warni pita
beterbangan di atas monyet
jelang dunia kampus

berubah kulit dan rambut

gerlap mata menatap bulan

syukur tiada akhir
