The Moon

The following “Haiku from Index Cards” celebrate the moon.

the moon brighter

through diseased Monterey pines—

a car alarm sounding

             (written 2000, published 2004)

the moon in the colander

        sparkling

between the washed lentils

             (written 1992, published 1995)

the moon in the puddle

      licked up

            by a spotted fawn

             (written 1991, published 1992)
