sun and moon

sun's flaming florets
unfurl morning's molten flare ...
burnished sunflower

moon's white bud uncurls ...
its midnight magnolia
blooms in soil-dark sky

sun's fire petals fold ...
moon's night flower illumines
a bouquet of stars

    Wow, Charlotte- yet again, you've painted such brilliant imagery in your writes-- I love how your haiku burst to life and I enjoyed your use of alliteration here as well! Linda sure will have a tough time judging, this is another beauty!

    Hey Charlotte, loved this! And I am pretty,darn tooting sure Linda will, too. The imagery is right up her ally. Me thinks, first place. I liked especially the soil-dark sky. This is sure to win! Hugs, Cyndi PS-the one thing I just noticed, I THINK, not totally sure, that the second haiku uses the second word AS the second word. So MOON may need a word in front of it. Did you see Linda's blog? I may be wrong!
