wispy and coy tonight

LOL! Just add clouds? Insightful take on our timeless companion Glenn.

Elusive and playful... excellent images for the solstice. :)

Yes, soft, wispy and coy. Nice to sense.

although it was coy, I never witnessed a moon sans experiencing joy. and joy is what this poem beams.

I liked reading both versions of this haiku. I really liked the photo behind the graphic version, but I do like the verse without the "full soft" - something very complete about the phrase "melancholy moon" - nicely done.
