Winter

Frosted valleys shine
Evergreens are frozen white
A cold crispness reigns

A Nice Write

Dave. I think your getting really good at this Haiku poetry.

Debs

Thank You

Debs, all I can say is, I try!
Dave

you have a lot of class

I am impressed by the beauty of your poems. In so few words you create an atmosphere that enhances your images. I don't know if you've ever been in VT, but this poem perfectly describes the road between Barre and Monpelier - any many other roads as well - in the dead of their long winters. I look forward to reading more of your work.

Thank You

Many thanks Joyce for your kind words, I'm very pleased you could get something from this piece. Have to ask, what does VT stand for?
Dave

Vermont

It is called the Green Mountain State. It is truly beautiful in both winter and summer, though it is a lot easier to take in the summer. The cold can be excruciating.

Gotta have that drink soon.....

Dave,
You seem to be rally getting into this Japanese form - So....
koigokoro, ai, aijou, ji, ren'ai, aikou, suki, koi
and
ikei, sonkei, sonchou, keii, kyoukei

(not sure which of these is right)
LOVE - RESPECT

Gabe
