Haikus for the Pensive

Moonlit autumn night

Geese honking, casting shadows

They know the way, I am lost.

Dry leaves are rustling

I stop, listen, feel relief

Barn cats in chase. Phew!

I want to play too

Run, fly, dance under the moon

I remain grounded.

Sister moon listens

She knows my worry and woe

May they wane with her.
