A Party at Night: Haiku Story



Written for 
Haiku Horizon
Prompt: Party



A Helpless  Moon



A sad moon reflects
as the pool-side vibrates;
a party at night

**

Ah, empty glasses 
and likewise souls strewn around;
a party at night

**

She sleeps on the chair
and the door bell doesn't ring;
a party at night

**

Morning arrives;
mirror fails to remember
a party at night

**

he opens his eyes
no noise from her kitchen;
a party at night

**

A happier she;
fresh flowers bloomed after
a party that night.



RS:)

  2. Four different Haikus which describes what happens when one drinks to much at a party. Interesting.

    BTW - your first Haiku here runs 5 - 6 - 5
