Peeking through the clouds
Young maiden out to surprise
the he-man earthlings
New moon shocked to see
struggles unabated in
long standing conflicts
Young hearts struggled with
hopes of finding directions
just for survival
For Chev\s CARPE DIEM Vision quest #1 - new moon
I bet the moon was shocked...
ReplyDeleteDirections can be hard to decide on, as we look at which way we can go
ReplyDeleteyour middle one got me thinking of all the conflicts that the moon has witnessed...i wonder if it is shocked at us...or if it is just more of the same....
ReplyDeleteNice set! Speaks to the times we are living in.
ReplyDeleteShe has seen quite a bit in her long life and I'm glad she is still willing to shine for us.
ReplyDeleteThat third haiku is my favorite, but all three are wonderful ... thank you for sharing Hank.
