Author Notes
Twelve people have walked on Earth's Moon. The first one was Neil Armstrong and the last one was Harrison Schmitt. All crewed moon landings took place between July 1969 and December 1972 as part of the United States Apollo program. All twelve people who have walked on the Moon are American men. click here if you want to see the list of people who walked on the moon
Contemporary Haiku is a Japanese short unrhymed poem that uses imagistic language to express the essence of a deeply felt moment in time. It resonates on a deeper level, leaving the reader enlightened and making an insightful connection.The most common literary adaptation in English of haiku looks something like this: one to four lines, no strict syllable count but brief. These poems too utilize a caesura (dash before satori). Images need not be taken from nature, though they may be and often are. Seasonality is optional, though often featured. HereĆ¢??s an example: in the woodpile the broken ax handle source
Thank you for reading and reviewing my poem
