September Heights, day 9 Gloss

Inspired by the theme at

Day 9, almost one third of this September Heights lies behind us. Today's prompt is Gloss ... I think I can write a few nice haiku with this prompt. Maybe I will write for today a none cascading haiku set, if I can do that of course, because I have become an addictive to that form (smiles).

Credits: Masquerade; Carnival of Venice

One of the meanings of Gloss is masquerade. The most famous carnival of the world is the Venice Carnival ... it's a very old tradition in Venice and it's known for it's wonderful masques. With this meaning I can certainly write a new haiku.

dark green eyes
hidden behind a mask -
she's mysterious

she's mysterious
breathtaking glamorous mask
attractive force

attractive force
mystical and magical
who is she?

who is she?
thrills of unmasking at midnight
exposed to the world

exposed to the world
she turns into a man with
dark green eyes 

Well ... this is really something heh ...
