Day 304 –Perigee Full Moon — Haibun Journey View From My Window

The August moon rises full and orange, a spectacular view from my window. Tonight’s full moon is said to be a perigee full moon. This means that the full moon coincides with the time that the earth is nearest to the moon.

the perigee moon
stuck in the maple tree
a white balloon

August full moon
within a stones throw
a nightingale sings
