You certainly have great descriptive powers my little Desert Orhid, I'll admit I'm not keen on haiku but this is the 'ace of hearts'. Take care, Richard

The blushing moon... what an original expression! I say, I like it a lot. "In the mood" indeed. Best of luck to you! Nice to see you do haiku now and then... a rare treat :)

I'm shying away from this form as I know I never get it up to the standards required, but...my simple brain can't get everything right, and there is no harm in taking poetic license, is there? Thanks for the encouragement, my dear! :) Hugs!

Why thank you, Russell. I'm glad that you enjoyed it. I so wanted to find the write words for this one. I don't know if it fits all the haiku demands...I just wanted to write! :)

Yes, the moon blushes, I can visualize this perfectly, and after the lovers bond together at night under the stars! You have painted a perfect picture one that I was able to feel by the words of this tender poem! I really loved reading this delightful piece this evening! You have presented a glorious poem, one that touched my heart, Great Work!!
