My attempt at a Hokku. This was a quick break, due to a quilting miss hap and dead lines. Won’t bore you here, if interested see my quilting blog : Dolores Quilts
moonrise
holding their hands on their knees
evening at a house © Basho
old blankets gathered
heading into the night air
sitting in the dark
eyes begin to adjust
first bright star appears
stretch out on the driveway
unspoken words gathering
as the father speaks
children follow his finger
counting the stars
Vega shines bright
whole constellations unfold
lightening bugs waltz
small hands grab at the lights
cupped hands glow
interest fades, beds sweetly call
one dreams under flower moon
