Haiku For A Snowy Day

December 28, 2012 in WINTER INSPIRATION | 4 comments

Today is a powder day. My world is cloaked and muffled in swirling snow.  Sekka Kamisaka’s woodcut, Momoyogusa (Flowers of a Hundred Generations), captures the mood and hues surrounding me, and is perfectly complimented by haiku by Joso.

Snow whispering down all day long,

earth has vanished

leaving only sky

(Joso)
