Notes About The Poem

Jewels For the Earth: Split Haiku

 morning sun arise
shine your warmth upon the Earth
                   with
    DAZZLING TOPAZ LIGHT

                     ~
                     
       soft glow in the night
   pale romantic lover's moon
                  wears
 MOONBEAM PEARLS TONIGHT

                     ~

       twinkling stars on high
   draped on a black velvet sky
                    like
       SPARKLING DIAMONDS

                     ~

       our sweet mother earth
God gave you sun, moon and stars
                  gifts
      OF JEWELS FOR YOU

            ~       ~      ~
