    That is a gorgeous photo, Anneli. The bare branches against a blue sky with the moon in the background – very dramatic. It could be the picture on the cover of a mystery novel.

    A beautiful photo, Anneli! I noticed the moon was full the other day, high in the daytime sky. Lovely poem! ❤️

    Thanks, Annelie, for the way your poem subtly caused me to question the moon’s vow to return. Foundational things. Often taken for granted with fractional doubts, serving as the catalyst of both fears and dreams.

    Nice. See any of the norther lights in your neck of the woods?

      They’ve been visible a few times over the years but I’ve only seen them here once. Usually too much cloud cover or it’s too late at night. But when I lived farther north in BC, I saw it a lot. Fantastic displays sometimes. I remember thinking it looked like a giant waving those big velvet drapes they had in the movie theaters back in the day. Another time it was like tall skinny green ghosts high-stepping across the sky. That one scared me a bit (as a child) and I ran inside. Small town, we didn’t think anything of standing outside after 11 at night in the summertime (because it had only just gotten dark about that time).

    A lovely photo, Anneli. The misty look is so evocative with the moon peeping through the branches of the trees.

    I love the haiku.
