This haiku captures a stark, wintry stillness, evoking both beauty and desolation. Excellent.

I can see this picture. You described a tree in winter in a way that I can hear the twigs snap. I enjoy this beautiful nature haiku.

Always love your haiku, Jack. Haven't read one in a long time though! First line is my favorite. There's an easy-going solemnity in the way you write (just hope no one tries climbing any of those slippery branches!).

Thank you, as always. I'm working my way back into writing. It feels great to write again.
