The moon whispers a hushed tale,
Of love and harmony.
In the winds from western trail.
***
Crescent moon Venus dances around,
Brilliant arch in the sky,
Leaving many a poets enchanted!
***
Curving up after many a days,
Muslims glancing to the skies,
breaking the fast of twenty nine days!!
***
Happy Ramadan!
Written for Carpe Diem Haiku Kai!
I hope your fast was easy - I am unsure of the correct way to wish those celebrating a Happy Ramadan.
ReplyDeleteThere are so many ways to celebrate ~ may we continue to learn from each other offering acceptance and peace.
