Aspen Winter

Whispering white light

falling lightly from the sky

winter Aspen sighs.

This haiku was inspired by the first light winter falling in the mountains of Colorado amongst one of my favorite Aspen tree groves. My smartphone was used to take this quick shot as I was walking joyfully through a trail.

Yours,
Eagle Spirit

Did you read the trees your haiku? It looks like one of them is falling asleep ;)
Seriously, very pretty and the area does look like a person should be walking around with hot cocoa and mini marshmallows in.

yes i read the trees and the one falling over :)
thank you for the love pen, from you it means a lot, i hold you in high regard.
yay cocoa and marsh is an excellent idea.

ps thought you were in canada not sa 😮

Haha oh so confusing me with some canadians 'eh?

We will need to work on getting that regard closer to the ground, I am afraid of heights but not too far below the ground I also fear being buried alive.

weird i am afraid of heights and being buried alive andddd sharks!!

Nice penned! I like haikus and short poems. :-) Too much long poems are so hard to read.

Wow, this is so beautiful. I was just reading @walkerland's snowy post and she included a Frost poem. It reminded me of another of his, called a Dust of Snow:

The way a crow
Shook down on me
The dust of snow
From a hemlock tree

Has given my heart
A change of mood
And saved some part
Of a day I had rued.

Wierdly, I was in Tasmania once in the absolute middle of nowhere in a beautiful cold forest, and we went into this picnic area and the toilets there had nothing on the walls except for this one bit of graffiti - the nicest graffiti I had ever seen.

I love the whispering soft consonants you have in there that gets that sense of quiet across - 'assssspen', 'www hissssss pering', 'ffffffffff allling', 'sssssighs...'

frost is good, funny similar i suppose.
