Midnight's Song

Surge of soothing tones,
Pacifies the moon to sleep:
Silver lullabies.

Love the idea of the last line--so peaceful. Such a fitting end to this haiku. Good use of imagery and personification for a creative perspective. Thank you for sharing your talent with us and for your prayers. Karen
