Basking In Moonlight

Basking in moonlight, just you and I.
All around us is only the sea.
On a bed of pearl white sand we lie
basking in moonlight, just you and I
watching clouds drift in a sapphire sky.
Balmy breezes, sweet tranquility!
Basking in moonlight, just you and I;
all around us is only the sea!

PS you are allowed more than two Haiku if you want to write them for PD's contest! You just have to have more than one! So you are fine Andrea with your four Haiku! Good luck in the contests(both contests, PD's and Gail's here)!
