Winter magic (haiku)

~my first haiku~

Still frozen forest

Fragrant moss quivers beneath

the magic carpet

[An owl on the moon]

It has been so hot lately, so taking a journey into your winter magic brings a cooling, sweet softness to the day. Visualizing the stirring, frozen world, all in the wondrous cloak of white. There is no enchantment so sacred as waking to this chilled space of light. Beautifully voiced.

A beautiful first haiku.. you capture the form and the landscape so very well.

breathtaking imagery. i can feel the coldness wrapping that landscape - chilling. opening alliteration grabs you and pulls you in. love the 'magical' last line.

[Moonie]

Thanks a lot for the review! Appreciated muchly!:))

[jacob erin-cilberto]

works very well with nice alliteration enhancing the first line...

i like the moss quivering, shivering...when it should be warm being covered...but every covering is not warmth, is it?
some just leave us freezing beneath.

The haiku itself is very much a personification of you I feel Moons.
Even in your trying of the form you are like the fragrant moss waiting to spring forth from a period of stillness. Nicely done. Congrats.

I can always trust you to find a beautiful meaning out of an ordinary situation! :))))
Thanks, Anto!
