strawberry moon
all that remains
of last night's dream
Cara Holman
a full silver sphere
but sadly the chooks
have not returned

peony moon
how the blooms get
weighed down

ReplyDeleteCongratulations on the winners. A lovely selection. Missed it as it was difficult to connect in Paris... and it rained both of the nights...
ReplyDeletemissed rendez-vous --
above the Eiffel Tower
only the rain
crushed hope
of the moon's reflection
in the Seine
only circles of raindrops
and moving city lights
