Little haiku prompted by Bartholomew Barkers’s Fraiku: Traveling Through The Dark

Storm rages on
Lights go out
Night sky comes alive

    Just spreadin’ the good stuff…..

    I read your ‘Earth Poem’ and was reminded of this….

    Take One Home For The Kiddies

    On shallow straw, in shadeless glass,
    Huddled by empty bowls, they sleep:
    No dark, no dam, no earth, no grass –
    Mam, get us one of them to keep.

    Living toys are something novel
    But it soon wears off somehow.
    Fetch the shoebox, fetch the shovel –
    Mam, we’re playing funerals now.

    Philip Larkin

    Yup – that’s when we get the real darkness – appreciate what we can see – and dance along the Milky Way.
