Night Blooms

Haibun

 

Early the other morning, I couldn’t sleep anymore from all the memory-filled dreams I was having, so I took the dog outside. Standing in the garden, all the world peaceful and sweet, I saw a truly Mid-western moon – the type I grew up. Placid and nearly full, and yet hidden within the glory of its own eerie light. Moons like this remind me I have no home anymore, not with my parents now gone from the world.

 

5 AM, the moon

playing night-bloomer with clouds

smells Angel Trumpets.

thanks AC. This is lovely and sad and fills me with longing. Because it's true, though there are Husband's and in-laws, once your own are gone, there is an empty place. Even the glory of the moon cannot fill it.
