haikus for tom and huck

Late one August night
Starlight glints off of glass panes
the dragonflies's wings

Ripples of murky
Black bog-water whispers to
sweeping wooden oars

Raft drifts aimlessly
Two figures resting on log planks
gazing at the moon

together

This is what happens
When a poetry-nerd reads
Mark Twain--yep.  Haikus.
