Haiku: 2008 Full Moon Calendar
Full Moon calendar
Written by a stargazing
“lunatic” poet
Wind blows and wolves howl
Beneath the hoary Ice Moon
In January
Frigid winter days
Snow Moon in February
may bring heavy storms
When Sap Moon appears
Crows begin to fly and caw
March is the month
Pink Moon in April
Harbinger of rosy blooms
The Earth welcomes Spring
Silver circle orb
Shining it month of May
Corn Moon, time to plant
On June Eighteenth
Time of the month for Full Moon
The Strawberry Moon!
Astronomical
Totally phenomenal
Buck Moon in July
Good time to catch fish
In hot and humid weather
Under Sturgeon Moon
Warm September days
The air is clear without haze
Night’s Harvest Moon ablaze
Cool October night
Shining silver in the sky
Gibbous Hunter’s Moon
Jack Frost comes calling
November’s leaves turn golden
Chilly nights; Beaver Moon
Daylight is shorter
December nights are longer
Under the Cold Moon
This December, there
Are two full moons. Second one
called the Blue Moon
