When the sun falls
And darkness envelops
The moon will reign


Lies comfort but the truth burns.

Maria,
  This has a different syllable count than the usual 5-7-5 but it is very beautiful!

Moonbeams radiate
When the veiling cloud has past
Playful shadows dance

I agree, very beautiful.  I can just see the sun setting and it getting dark.  I like it

Nicely written, Maria.  The moon is very powerfull in haiku.  You captured the duality of eastern thought very well.
