meteor shower
one wish
follows another
I also remember seeing a shooting star at Christmas Eve last year, it was one of the most amazing things I've ever seen. Here's another haiku:
Christmas Eve
a shooting star points

Vivid dreams
I've recently been having these vivid dreams; I'd wake up at times during the night: 2am, 4am on a consistent basis during the weekdays. Last night I had such a luminous and vivid dream of stars/meteor showers. I wrote a haiku in my head about it afterwards:

..i can't remember if i ever seen a real shooting star but i'd like to... your haikus are delicate... simple & unpretentious... loved it... smiles...
Gorgeous... I especially like the first one.
I've never seen a shooting star, but I like the idea of it pointing the way home.

The shooting star was a beautiful sight Kelvin, I thought it was some sort of plane at first, but then it was moving really fast, and before I knew it, it twinkled off behind the horizon. I think there's scheduled meteor showers over the years, but I do recommend it! I'm glad you enjoyed the haiku! That definitely makes capturing those moments worth it!
Thanks Laurie, I oughta dream more vivid dreams! :)

It is wonderful, isn't it, when dreams evoke poetry! Beautifully penned.
I like Meteor Shower. We never have one wish. We have many of them, that need to be answered.
I am glad to have found Carpe Diem, it's great to know there are active haiku blogs happening. Really nice to meet you! I'll drop by Carpe Diem to post some haiku soon.
It is indeed a beautiful thing when dreams inspire poetry; I was lucky enough to have remembered this one as I was passing in and out sleep :)
Totally true Sandi :) Love that comment!
