Nicely presented Haiku poem with cleverly written words and a strong allusion. Thank you for sharing this with us I was learning to play poker some years ago, but I did not learn it well. Hope you are having a great day.

moon, stars, fireflies, and birds - a full house
diamonds in the pot and hearts up your sleeve - a royal flush waits. . .

Gypsy,

I like your idea of combining the card game allusion with nature. For those not familiar with the "full house" term, your author note may be of interest. I am familiar with the game, but I like the allusion you created as a double entendre!

I loved the sense of night time in this poem. Not only that, but summer nights, when the insects and birds are making noise. Beautiful imagery and a sense of nostalgia

I don't see the moon and stars and fireflies but they might be in the cards. I do see a full house of men but hopefully nature will sneak in and show them something much more beautiful to look at!

    I couldn't find a literal picture, this picture is as close as possible but you can imagine the sounds and light coming from outside.

    Thank you very, big sister ❤️
