They flower at night,
flare gold as the desert stars;
sunrise in the dark.

night scented blossoms
moths of the desert find them

How very beautiful... and just what I needed to read on this day when sunrise has slept in and only gloom greets the morning. *S*

I do love your haikus... yes. *S* No one writes them better. *S*

We had a flowering cactus in our backyard there in Santa Maria...this brought back some wonderful memories, Ed.

Thank you.

Ed,
I'm going with a different take on this, being that we(as Americans) are still involved where in my opinion we do not belong, here's how I see this. Iraq, explosions at night,lighting the sky.
Nothing beautiful about it.
