Thanks so much, Andrea. I'm not very good with haiku, but occasionally I write one that is okay. I appreciate your thoughts.

Thank you so much, Shirley. I love a starry night. Tonight, we are having a full moon, so it is taking all the attention.

A night away from city lights makes me appreciate their beauty. Very nice Haiku, Milt.

Thank you, Jenna. I love to watch the stars at night, especially trying to figure out the constellations...and, I am not very good at it!
