Sun-Moon

millions of stars
are similar to our sun - -
teeming universe

a hairy werewolf 
stands howling at the full moon - -
silver bullets fly

a new made vampire 
drinks blood under the moonlight - -
ashes at sunrise

Jack Horne for Linda-Marie's haiku contest

Oooh, very spooky, Jack. Very nice the way you set the stage in your first verse and then went on to describe the effects of moonlight on legendary creatures. Best wishes in the contest! Love, Carolyn

You will do well in the contest Jack! You have put together the beautiful sun and the cool moon! I really liked how you put both a werewolf and a vampire successfully into the same poem of Haiku nonetheless!! They work real well too, Great Work!!
