Deep Winter Haiku

My haiku for this challenge uses the Kigo words “evergreens” and “bare trees”. I find myself enraptured by what is revealed by the bareness of winter. I especially love how the contour of hills is shown because we can see through the trees. I am caught by the jagged, long peaks that are exposed in this season.


Snow reveals all things:
Burdened evergreens bending
Bare trees branches weave.
