Kneeling Haiku

Kneeling; like the moon's
soft reflective gaze
bathing Master's face

Within the moment
the day has fallen away
to just mere seconds

Cool sweat dripping from
freshly marked, reddened skin
to dance pleasure's waltz

Large transclucent pools
of compassion, grace and love
gently touch my face

Limber arms and legs
snap to rigid attention
with one quiet word

Melodies of pain
strike the heart with emotions
while the body waits

Author notes

First attempt at anything resembling a Haiku. I'm still studying the form to know exactly what it should be other than the 5-7-5. Any feedback would be appreciated.
