Lanterns lure in the fog.

Some lanterns lure more than you know.
✨🏮✨🏮✨🏮✨✨🏮✨🏮✨🏮✨
Lanterns bathe in fog,
Drawing willing moths to flame—
Weary souls entrapped.

"Lanterns bathe in fog." I never thought about this before, now the visual is embedded in my brain. A definite surreal appeal here, Michelle!
This reads like a whisper from another realm, luminous and chilling all at once.
Wow, so true ! Excellent work!!!
Great haiku, Michelle.
Beautiful haiku.
OMG, Michelle, I've read "fog" as "frog" in the title and was wondering where the frogs were lost in the haiku. I loved the haiku without the frogs even more.
