Attention

moon in full glory
rides celebrations galore
did I see it blush
when the fair maiden looked up
to wish on a falling star

P.S.

We celebrate the Hunter Moon as Sharad Poornima (onset of winter), with night time celebrations under the open sky. Some people keep a rice pudding in the open at night, and then consume it.
