We would prepare many traditional tsukimi festival dishes, & after eating we'ld go outside, write a few haiku while viewing the moon. Here are some of my old tsukimi haiku: Your breath in my hand, Warm valley filled with moonlight; The night's balm lingers. - - - Looking up I see a muted moon gazing down. How long before dawn? - - - Moonlight in your eyes, the taste of salt on my lips. Stop laughing, hold still.
what do you normally do during tsukimi? just asking. I'm doing a research paper on it :)
