a deer treads into the frozen clearing... full moon
Link with 916: Stepping out.
[One day at the farm we took a hike through a wooded area. When we emerged on the other side we saw several deer in the clearing. They were momentarily motionless. Eventually they darted off silently in different directions.
At night, under moonlight, when no one is around it must be quite a sight to observe their movements. And with so many predators like bears and wolves, I wonder how they get any sleep.]
From "The Haiku Anthology" I became interested in Haiku and I have since written numerous haiku, senyru, and tanka. "Masago", my haiku pen-name, means "grain(s) of sand" in Japanese. I have recently started learning Esperanto and Japanese. A few years ago I developed a new eastern verse form which we now call 'Renhai'.

A lovely write Masago...

Simply beautiful. What hides behind the nature's beauty is its beast!?

Dinner by moonlight!! In late fall it could be quite the "romantic" scene.
Vivid and suggestive,Vaughn.

i love to see the deer on the mainland when i drive down to england or across to inverness

Sublime deadening passion - great economy and even greater thought. Loved.
