Can you place yourself in front of this scene? Perhaps with a loved one or valued friend...

silhouette of fronds
illumined at their height
in stillness haloed


I have to say, I had extreme difficulty with that last line.



Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.

To whispering winds
the sun tangos with the moon
a fan dance of love

I liked yours Virginia and again thanks for another inspiring challenge.

Yes, awesome indeed, dear Virginia. I love your interpretation, it's very beautiful.

Very much enjoyed also Victoria's offering.

I am closing my eyes now to write down my own emotions:


Sun embraces moon:

Earth shudders missing a beat

hearts yearn for love touch



Hugs.
Margherita

I loved both yours and Margheritas and I had to look up fronds Virginia...and thank you Margherita for your comments about my haiku too.
