I'VE BEEN INVITED by my friend, Jingle, to join the Jingle Poetry  blog, which is posted each week from Sunday 8:00 PM thru Tuesday 8:00 PM.  This week's theme is Night, Moon, and Stars.  Please visit the site, and poets, join in!!

I'm offering a Haiku....

Dark star awakens bat
to wing into the purple
ashes of the day.
