__ This is an ancient legend of the Wampanoags along the shores of Lake Assawampsett, as it now edges Middleborough Ma..  Assawampsett, is that Lake of the White Stones, and the moon of leaves is June; Mon-do-min... Maize, that fruit of life. _m

moon of leaves

Lieber Magyar,
du bist und bleibst der große Haiku-Meister!

Bei uns gibt es ein Stärkemittel zur Bindung von Soßen und Dererlei, es heißt Mondamin.
Jetzt verstehe ich auch den Zusammenhang, Dank deiner Erklärung.

Lass die Sonne in dein Herz,
dies wünscht dir Rachel

This has a nice sound then read aloud, the repeated M sounds is like a chant the natives would sing to the gods of corn, perhaps.

__ Thank you Rachel for your kind gift, but I think I am far from a 'haiku master.'
__ Adelaide, you've seen and sensed this silent nature's care. Smiles! _m

Very nice! Your haiku is as lovely as the lake.

You sparked my interest, i googled so now i know that that Mon-do-min is Corn named after the indian warrior around whose grave they first sprang up. Nice legend from History of the town of Middleboro, Massachusetts

much love...
