    "Earth seeks Moon
    Shining stars resist
    Night walks quiet…" so there is someone who wants to get something, the other who stops him and yet another who is indifferent. You capture real life in nature and more so you capture human in stars, earth and night

    I love all of them! - so poetic. And the last lines of each are perfect endings. Great set.

    I too try bronze urn filled with water overnight.

    And how true, ego seeks 'self' every where!

    Hi Ramesh,

    I appreciate your comments and visiting my blob. This muse has been busy with work and not written much lately. Big issues changing our company and our world. As usual, I enjoy reading your work. My best, Rob.

    Wonderful haikus, my favorite is:
    Seeking 'self'
    In your expressions
    Ego's need.

    Greetings.
