Winter

listening
to the sonorous silence
of snow piling up

Area 17 said...: The snow in Hull isn't silent, but all the more interesting because of that! ;-)

But I agree, listening to snow is a great treat.

Beatrice V said...: Thanks Alan, but what you are saying is interesting.... the 'sound' of snow? An explanatory haiku please...:) with what kind of sound that is.; December 04, 2010
Area 17 said...: Hi Beatrice,

Well, nothing is really silent, as even silence has its own noise. ;-)

In Hull where I've been as part of the Hull Global Renga there's been blizzards and hailstones, as well as thundersnow.

Here's a draft haiku, developing on from my earlier post (and image):
