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.

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.
