Snowy Stream

Amongst barren winter trees
                                   Snow caps on a rippled stream
                                   Conifers sway in the breeze
                                   Images resonate winter dreams

Thank you Connie~I really enjoy working with Robert's new form~I like short forms and this gives a bit more room than a Haiku. Thanks for stopping by. Blessings, Paulette

Well said; for sure, all is asleep, dreaming of blossoming. Sort of like our democracy -- hopefully not to perish before an awakened thaw. Joe.

Paulette, you've made excellent use of Lind 30 form. I enjoyed the scenery you portrayed, that is nice, but I'm not a big fan of cold winters in general. Reading this was so interesting.

Lasaad, i really enjoy the Lind30 form it allows for a short poem to expand a little beyond the parameters of a Haiku. I don't particularly like the cold, but I love the winter landscape and the magic it brings. Glad you enjoyed the view! Blessings,Paulette

Nice use of Robert's form, Paulette. I loved the scene you painted, which is saying something for me, because I'm not a cold weather, winter person. Enjoyable reading.

Thanks Milton~Glad I was able to bring this winter scene to you. I find Robert's form very liberating, a short form like the Haiku, but the added syllable count allow for a more expressive canvas. :)Paulette
