Charmaine Chircop Poet Haiku

The Drunken Moon

Traditional Haiku :

the harvesting moon
reflects none of its corners
in the empty glass

the setting full moon
reflecting all its corners
in the half-full glass

- - - - - - - - - - - - -
Contemporary haiku :

blood moon
filling wine jars
at dusk


Harvest  night
-in a farmer's wine glass
the spinning moon


a crescent moon
its missing piece floating
in lemon  soda

Inspired  by Skat' s contest Drunken Moon
but not for the contest

Thanks Skat...

Sandip Goswami July 5, 2015 at 12:30 AM A great Bengali poet Sukanta Bhattacharya who lived in the world only 21 years, wrote, "The world is full of verse in the hungry kingdom/ Full moon is like a burned bread." I remember my dearest poet to read your drunken moon. Thank you so much.

Andrea Dietrich July 3, 2015 at 2:13 PM wow, these are amazing. You ought to do that one "blood moon" separately and enter it into the contest. If I were Skat, that one would get in the top three at least!!
