Looking For Luna

Why do you hide yourself away This night, behind clouds of gray I need your warmth and comfort Do not leave, I beg you stay.. Tonight you speak with foreign tongue I want to understand your cry Your voice is slow and tearful Without your love I'll surely die.. But now you cast no shadow No place for me to run and hide Sweet Luna, you who know my secrets Without you, must I now abide?

Oh, I love this quatrain, Barbara. The pleast to "Sweet Luna" are beautifully stated. Well done, my friend, and best wishes in the contest. I opened a haiku contest about an hour or so ago and it's half full. Hope you'll get a chance to write one about the praying mantis! Love, Carolyn
