Twelfth Haiku

Inspired by K R Brandli's terrific Haiku "the Pretty Moon"

A silver lining
in midnight's ancient slumber
glistens on water

The indulgence of reading your superb reflections is the amazing cleverness that forever dances forth to tantalize. La, if I could only write haikus like you. Awesome, impressive, fantastic, marvelous. What imagery so richly laden with layers. I am nigh floored. Wonderful.

To my mind, this piece provides plenty of inspiration of its own.

I can just about picture the moon reflecting off the water, gracing the night with an almost serene glow. Quite a write.

"ancient" is the word which makes the writing different from picturising the momentary image. The word extends the span of intelligence where imagery lost its hypnotic charm. Another essence of philosophy inclines.
