Nice, I like the flow and near rhyme of the first and last lines.

As humans we can relate, strange though, we never stray too far from the nest. Saw a full moon a few days ago setting over the mountains in Spain, it was huge. Hope your weekend is going well Linda. Tom

' empty nest syndrome. ' So many can relate, I'm sure. This is tender and emotional, all at the same time. Your thoughts caress gently around me and my heart. My best to you, Linda. Hugs, Brandy

How unique, Linda! I appreciate your poetry, because you are in tune with nature. I learn things I never, ever knew. Am far too citified-)))) You also are great at being so clean in the use of forms! Mostly, I lke you as a poet and friend, because you don’t go around blowing your own horm. Bless you. Thank you and hugs, Pangie.

I enjoyed reading your wonderful "child moon" Haiku write. I love the sky/clouds, by day or by night. A full moon was this week. Have a blessed/fun weekend................
