A brine of fresh frost

Mooned night echoes to owl calls

In response to a challenge, a tongue-in-cheek Gothic haiku …

Shadows not shadows

Soft rustle of parted silk

Pale skin in moonlight

light!

outside in the night
black, not a single street light
raw white flash, lightning!

crisp, clear waxing moon
casts long, twisted grey shadows
owl’s soft muted call

Awake

This late, Thursday night
I should be dreaming delights
Not tapping keyboard

Night shift

From the darkened fields
Bright lights, fearsome roaring
Harvester at work

In the dark garden
Multi million raindrops fall
Each with a small splash

Under the bright stars

A paper thin universe

Echoes to an owl

Sometimes, grey moonlight 

Feels like that peaceful moment

Between quiet breaths
