Luna (Five Haiku)

LUNA (five Haiku)

just a ghostly form
riding a late august sky
moon and scattered clouds

i’m all by myself
september moon shining down
bread    cheese    and red wine

laura smiles at me
clouds part and the moon peeps out
i’m falling in love

looking at the stars
clouds part and the moon peeps out
all’s right in heaven

late september moon
beauty    promises    perfume
two falling in love

bathing in moonlight
the world a sea of shadows
bread    cheese    and red wine

I enjoyed reading your poetry this morning Daver. I will not be reading poetry for a few days as I will be gone from Friday until Monday. I look forward to reading more of your poetry when I return. I wish you a weekend filled with good health, love, and loads of inspiration. Love and Blessings, Carol

Brilliant imagery and the haiku series form give so much power to this awesome account of an out-of-body experience, Daver! Welcome home, my friend. We have missed you here. Love, Carolyn
