    I almost forgot, Stars are lonely.
    I loved this haiku.

  3. I know very little about the rules of traditional haiku, but I think one of them is this surprise element, an unexpected angle, when the reader has to stop for a split second in order to catch up with the writer’s thought. Your haiku works that way. I like the image of lonely stars a lot.
