Haiku 2014/1

Moon, did you miss me?
You spend your silver freely
even when I'm gone

Good, we all need more structure and poetry in our lives.

I'm so glad to see the return of the Haiku. One interesting thing about this one is that the 1/1/2014 moon was a new moon, so we were the ones missing it.

V: Yes, technically, on the day I posted this haiku it was a new and therefore "invisible" moon. And the thought did cross my mind. But these carefully arranged syllables are untethered to the diurnal round, and express a deeper moon-ness.
