Harvest Moon

There are process notes with this one.

– While on lunch break, I couldn’t come up with a haiku. The first poem is the one I wrote. Later, when I came home and sat down to post, I decided to edit my original poem a bit, but hated to lose any of the images I had, so I turned it into two haiku. Maybe not the best result, but I believe it is good enough.

Carpe Diem #301 – Harvest Moon

**
Blowing the winds of reality
autumn reminds of itself –
paradise of yellowness.
Come closer and feed your vision.

**
Blowing the winds of
reality, autumn is
so full of itself.

Paradise of moon,
yellowness will come closer
Feeding your vision

Stars blink amidst clouds
All gazes hushed in thrill
Harvest Moon fulfills us.

Full Moon

Today is the second day of the month of November, famous for its sugar and caffeine flavour. Taking part in the November Poem-A-Day Chapbook challenge I still am and here is today’s prompt: Full Moon. It has been suggested by Khara House, who is an amazing poet, so click on her name and see more. Here is my poem. Yet another “moon” poem. But, honestly, this one took a different turn.

Full Moon—

as in complete, accomplished,

and perfectly shaped

to raise our dreams or apprehensions,

to feed our mystic cravings, and to

whisper in our darkened nooks

of weirdness unseen, unwaited for, and

un-desired – uneasiness awakened.

For, after all, we are just beings

bathed in profuse light,

clinging to the hope that

light will not desert us

to that full moon’s full-flavoured grip.
