What a joy to walk in the light of the moon and to see it’s reflection in e.g. an old pond, or a puddle.

I take this haiku from the moon’s perspective: The moon is reflecting on the space. And that leads me to the conclusion that the moon is lonely, and wanting companionship. Poignant.

It’s afraid we’re going to fall out of the sky after the incident with the forbidden fruit:)

Beautiful and studying it intently! Lovely thought but not 5-7-5. Must learn to break away a bit.
