By rule haiku does not have a title, however, giving them a title is the easiest way I can find them amongst other poems :)

lights weave through snowflakes 
teasing and twirling about 
distant stars dancing

a brilliant display
wearing only hand-me-downs
the moon steals the show

I was driving late in the evening last week and I had to call my daughter to go outside and look at the moon and Venus beside it. It was such an incredible sight. They were both beautiful independently but were infinitely more beautiful beside each other. Enjoyed your write.

FJ Thomas
Date: 11/30/2020 12:42:00 PM

I wish I could have seen that. Thank you James.
