Stroll beneath the Crescent Moon

by Gypsy Blue Rose


For Rules, Please Read My Author Notes

 

stroll beneath the crescent moon—

in each tree

a clear night

 

 



Recognized


In each tree a clear night is a zen concept. Everything is connected in nature.

Modern Haiku is a brief Japanese poem that epitomizes a single moment. The form is 17 syllables or LESS, in 1 to 4 lines as brief as possible. It doesn't have to follow the 5/7/5 pattern because Japanese and English syllables are not the same. It uses the juxtaposition of two concrete images, often a universal condition of nature and a particular aspect of human experience, in a way that prompts the reader to make an insightful connection between the two. The best haiku alludes to the season of the year. Poetic devices may be used. The haiku is written from an observer's point of view.. -- modern haiku rules -- modern haiku examples

Thank you very much for taking the time to read and review my poem.
