New-Ku
Invented by Charles Messina. A rhyming haiku with two stanzas.
The first has a syllable count of 4,3,3,3,3,3,3,4 and the second has a syllable count of 8,6,6,6,6,6,6,8. Each stanza must also have a rhyming pattern.

a setting sun ends its run daylight's done darkness won night's begun everyone but my son leaves one by one gazing up at night’s starry skies through a five-year-old's eyes he starts to fantasize for stars look like fireflies and watching the moon rise triggers audible sighs but as things normalize shooting stars add to his surprise.

Emile...I simply do not know how you come up with these superb pieces when responding to a contest. This is absolutely superb, and I know we'll see it at or near the top! Your choice of the monorhyme was excellent.
