Formally, a perfect haiku, but it's so much more than that. You tell a complex story in just a few images. So much happens in that gap between lines 2 and 3! That's where the creative energy of this poem resides. Coiled energy always accumulates in a haiku, and in your poem I can really feel it.
I'm glad you liked my small Haiku. In China, Chang'e is often used as a metaphor for homesickness and loneliness. When we see the moon, we'll think of the Goddess of Moon Chang'e... Thank you Daniel for your nice comment!
A beautiful haiku in the traditional 5-7-5. So is the picture, and your narration of the legend of Chang'E will be helpful and informative to readers.
Thank you Kwai Chee for your comment! I know you are good at Haiku writing. Let's keep on.
