C2,
A striking picture with the two lone palms, standing tall and proud like sentinels, the glow of dusk behind and the ever watchful moon above.
Perhaps they will disappear into the blackness of night where oblivion awaits, but starlight also awaits and morning is not far away.

Thanks Janet!

This haiku, Two Lone Palms, presented with a 5-7-5 formatting, finds the last guard against tomorrow's destiny awaiting that which the new day brings.

Hello C2,
Nice piece of poetry as a 'Haiku' meeting the desired norms, having lucid as well as perfectly matching the theme phraseology, and transparently depicting its inner sense.
Picture enhances depth and beauty of the poem.
GOOD LUCK in the contest.

Congratulations on All Time Best. I think you are rising in the ranks of writing and enjoying it. Good photo to compliment your Haiku. Palms are long living and found in just about every country. They are tough and withstand wicked weather. Well done and good luck with the writing contest.

What unbelievable colors are seen in that photo? Fantastic.
I'm glad you wrote about the two palms, not the parking lot full of cars.
Best wishes.

idk about oblivion??? They aren't going to their demise. What about obscurity which will be theirs once the final rays fade away. It would maintain the needed seventeen syllables. But what there's may be unquestioned by others.

In my head I saw a couple in the car watching the sunset and about to head to a bar where they intend to drink away their cares. Thanks for the read!

in the dark we won't be seen.

I always enjoy reading Haiku poems, which I call sneeze poems. Hai--ku! So much said in so few words. Plus your picture combined just seems to fit with the poem. Thanks for sharing.
