Oh William, this haiku captures the glimmering beauty of shimmering moonlight on the lotus flower. What a serene scene your words create as the lotus sends out waves of peace in the moonlight! Just exquisite my friend! Serenity forever held in a gentle moment of time. Congratulations and lauds for your fine win! A fav for me!
