Haiku: Walking on the Moon

23/02/2014

“When I admire the wonders of a sunset or the beauty of the moon, my soul expands in the worship of the creator.” Mahatma Gandhi

Haiku: Walking on the Supermoon

Haiku: Walking on the Supermoon

Walking on the moon

I stop to gaze at  my past

All seemed lost so fast.

“Three things cannot be long hidden: the sun, the moon, and the truth.” Buddha

What giant step did you take where you hoped your leg wouldn’t break? Was it worth it, were you successful in walking on the moon, or did your leg break? Photographers, artists, poets: show us RISK.

Positive Motivation Tip: The moon can be a cover for good and evil. All actions have consequences … Be mindful

    If everyone watched their vices, the world would be a much better place to live. I love gazing at the moon, especially in the fall when there is a harvest moon.

    This reminds me of all the nights on cape cod when I would walk the beach alone or with my husband. It was so peaceful!

    Hello Eliz,
    I’m a fellow haiku writer and fan. I recently published my first collection of haiku and am interested in sharing about the experience, my book, and haiku in general. I’m looking for fellow bloggers, like yourself, who may be interested in interviewing me on your blog. This would be an opportunity for us to gain exposure to each other’s readers. Please let me know if you’re interested. And keep up the great writing!

    Oh mother moon, the light in the darkness. I love the little haiku. Reminded me of how I just love pushing the envelope with my writing.

    “always saying, “I can’t”…Hate that!…at least try…then you have the “right” to say you can’t!
