    It is a very vivid picture. I read it differently though, like this:

    puddles
    at a train crossing -
    moons shiver

    I asume that to moons shiver in the puddles at the train crossing. Am I right?

    Thanks Martin for your nice Haiku. My response.

    the starry sky
    dissolves in breeze
    on the lake's face ~

    the dowager's mirror
    taking a peep
    into it

    late night rain drops --
    across the yard
    diamonds amidst the grass

    Stilness again -
    even the moon coming back
    at her room

    eclipse night before,
    cricket-less --
    stupefied blue jay awakens dawn
