waxing crescent moon

golden crescent moon

lounges in frozen night sky

basking in starlight

my chest expands with relief

dregs of day gone with the mist

Young moon

Nothing to say,

  only a sliver tonight,

     waxing crescent moon 

~

Sky is clear

    my mind is empty

         crickets chatter

~

At last 

    the moon has returned

         I knew it would


A waxing crescent moon is sometimes called ‘young moon’.

Welcome!

My name is Janice.  I started blogging as Ontheland when I moved from Toronto to a rural area near Kingston, Ontario in Canada.  Over time I have found myself writing poetry, mostly in Japanese forms, such as haiku and haibun.  One of my deepest interests is the natural world: the joy of it and how we can look after it better.

Thank you for dropping by!
