One more second from the Moon to Earth.

crisp night
the shiver of moonlight
in her eyes

In a flash from her eyes to mine.

  1. I'm very glad it works right. Thank you so much for all your kind words.
    @lanMcL13, I'm flattered that you like my haibun but I offered this piece to Tinywords and I believe it should be available on the Internet just here and at my personal website. So, would you be so kind and remove it from your blog?
    Warm greetings.

  2. Today all the luxuries we enjoy in our life is just because the help of education. It is because of education that we can enjoy the number of joys in our life and can understand the number of different things in our life.
