one moment
illuminated
first snow falls
snow has a way of hushing an entire landscape
softening life's edges, illuminating light
something as simple as
falling
calls out holy.
haiku my heart.
lovers of small words gather like light to
illuminate the landscape of another.
welcome home
i look forward to visiting each of you on saturday.

Your words... these soft snow night lights are falling into the palm of my hand... that remembers the curve of your cheek and the sweet melody of your voice, love notes from you to all of us... XOXOXOXO

Falling...calling out, "Holy crap!" Something like that?

so true rebecca... silence all around, and delight at the majesty of each tiny jewel as well... sacred and pure. your photo is exquisite! I hope that you will consider sharing an offering for this year's 4th annual gratitude word quilt. You can find information about the project and how to participate at the top of my blog. If you’ve already sent something thank you. The quilt is growing quite expansive and with only first names, I can’t always remember who already shared. Feel free to write in your native language google translate is available on my blog so every one can read and understand one another. Every Blessing~ Laura

This is my first time linking to your lovely website and I'm not sure I got all the linking right. Every visit here is a delight to my senses and a reminder that all things can be holy. Thank you for sharing ....even the snow moments.

Beautiful. I like the snow. We've had one small dusting and our landscape closely resembled the soft edged photo you posted. It melted quickly. I'm not sure what amount of snow and how cold it will be this year here in the upper Midwest, but I will change my weather numerous times, God willing, as we travel to the Southwest a couple of times and to Florida in February.
Wonderful to be here sharing with you and the others. Haiku My Heart brings Peace to my heart.
Much Peace to all.

Your haiku is beauty...but I am glad you added the paragraph...almost made me forget I am not fond of snow. Love to you Rebecca♥

I adore that silence..but and willing to wait for it as the Fall releases its crunchy, wind-blow noises to the world.
Sending big love to you, Beautiful, and gratitude, as always, for this space you provide.
Love and light !

Beautiful words and imgae. Cherish that moment of silent snow for it is often fleeting.
Have a great day.
Always, Queenie

Magical moment when the snow starts to fall; follow the flakes downward and everything stops for an instant

though your haiku melts my heart.
