Thursday night:
Late summer drive
wind roars in my ears
cool breath of night
~
Tonight’s moon is lost
though mists unveil the stars
an eerie feeling
~
Friday night:
As last embers glow
quiet suspends in coolness
moonlight cups the sky
~
Not visible in this photo is the crescent shape of the almost quarter moon. One of many benefits of Carpe Diem Haiku Kai prompts is their encouragement to absorb the outdoors. The prompt ‘cool’ nudged me to closer enjoyment of summer night air—touched in two of these haiku.

A lovely series that moves from ‘roaring’ to ‘quiet’ in a few breaths, tbe coolness is refreshing and mysterious too ☺💜

Nice Janice, I felt each of these. I’d say, like myself you’ve been haiku’d:) Ever since I happened upon Carpe Diem Haiku Kai I have been paying much closer attention to what goes on in nature. A job well done.

I like ‘moonlight’ cups the sky’ … reminds me of the hollow in the sickle moon…
