I awoke to the silence of a snow covered vista.
Snowflakes dancing to a winter song. My
heart picks up a beat in the cold morning air.
I drift away to thoughts of you. Wishing to melt this distance between
you and I. A snowflake never falls in
the wrong place, each has its own journey and pace. I dream of a spring thaw in hopes we will
find the road of togetherness.
stillness in the night
winter blankets my vision
singing intentions

Can it fall in the right place far far away? Sure comes down dancing at play. Like snow we all have our own journey indeed.
ReplyDeletePerhaps, the distance is needed to crystallize a dream.
DeleteI love "a snowflake never falls in the wrong place." So many possibilities in the spring thaw...........
ReplyDeletePossibilities give one hope.
Deletebeautiful Haibun.

Thank you ZQ :)
DeleteYour words fit the beauty of snow...
ReplyDeleteSo true. A snowflake never falls in the wrong place. But hopefully when it melts, the distance will be lessened....and all will be right in the world. Smiles!
ReplyDeleteMary, I do hope someday things will be right in the world.
DeleteThis is a peaceful haiku, I enjoyed it.
ReplyDeleteHi Rob,
DeleteI am glad you enjoyed it, may peace be with you!
Love it. A beautiful - delicate - haibun. Wonderful writing with the prose and haiku pieces dovetailing together, seamlessly. Your words are wonderful. I especially thought that '... melt this distance …' was really superb.
ReplyDeleteHi Wendy, your comments are such a delight to read. Thank you for the smile.
DeleteI love the sense of belonging the prose evokes. And how that belonging becomes even more in the promise weaved into the haiku. Yummy piece.
ReplyDeleteThank you Magaly for visiting :)
DeleteThe thought of spring thaw in winter is so beautiful. It surely melts the distance. A beautiful Haibun.
ReplyDeleteSumana - thank you and who know maybe, when the snow melts a new path will be found.
DeleteYou paint an enchanting image. Especially cooling for the southern hemisphere summer.
ReplyDeleteThank you! Summer seems a dream away (sigh)
DeleteI love how we took a similar walk and ended up with different view of the snow... maybe it depends on what we feel inside.
ReplyDeleteBjorn, I think you are right the journey and emotions are very much connected.
DeleteI could hear the sizzle of snow-white noise in your haibun – silvery sibilance so beautifully painted.
ReplyDeleteThank you Kim for such a nice comment.
DeleteIt looks great, sure, but I was enjoying winter without it. Driving in it or walking in it stinks. The cold of the last couple of days came out of nowhere too, it seems!
ReplyDeleteSilver, it has been extremely cold here as well. I think sleet and freezing rains for tomorrow and Thursday.
DeleteStay warm and safe...
Nice lines😊
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pic!

ReplyDeleteI am glad it brought a sense of peace.
DeleteWhat a beautiful depiction, snow and love entwined, intertwined
