Oh, quite an intriguing haiku this is, dear Linda.. I love everything about the moon, it's inspiring for the muse, "sterile white snowflakes".. Ahh, that first line is gorgeous.. And that ending one, woah, a bit eerie.. Absolutely enjoyed reading this dear poetess, sending you love & light~ best wishes for the New Year too :)
