Tempo de verão
As brincadeiras na praia
E som das risadas
夏のひととき
ビーチで遊ぶ
そして笑い声

Playing on the beach
and the sound of laughter

テーマ 「おと」 Theme "Sound" 入賞作品 JAL Prize winner
This haiku is technically well-constructed, maintaining a balanced meter and a natural progression between image and sound. The poem leads the reader from the expansive atmosphere of "summer time" to the concrete scene of playing on the beach, culminating in the sound of laughter, which gives life and movement to the observed moment. The sound acts as an element of closure and expansion of the scene, reinforcing the spontaneous and collective joy of the moment. With simplicity and lightness, the haiku captures the vibrant energy of summer.
