Now THAT'S a good haiku.
I admire the haiku style. I've been tampering with it for a while, but I've never quite.. mm, I digress.
This is good.

Aw, that's lovely. I could never manage haikus. Amazing what someone can capture in so few words.

Wow.
That's pretty good.
I'm never been a big fan of Haiku's.
I don't know why though.
Oh well.
+ Fav!

Beautiful! It's hard to find a truly good haiku, much less write one. I enjoy dabbling with haiku, but dang it's hard! Congrats on the DD!

they are truly difficult to master and i am light years away from doing so. but i enjoy them far too much to quit. i am delighted this one turned out so well.

This is a gorgeous haiku. It's especially difficult to write a good haiku in the 5-7-5 format, but you did a great job!

really like the imagery, very soft..
by the way congrats on your daily deviation peter, you deserve it!

But you deserve these, seriously. With Swinburne, Poe, Alliksaar and some others you're my favourite poet.

Very graphic. I wonder if leaf touches snow or the snow touches leaf but... same difference I guess. This is a great haiku, congrats on the DD, sir!

Sometimes short can be more descriptive than a whole essay. I think this is the epitome of a good haiku, and they were very wise choosing this for a DD. You have a very beautiful author's tag, too.

why thank you! the tag is my homage to depeche mode. *chuckles* i am an avid fan.
i am just now starting to grasp the essence of what makes a good haiku. hopeful for more chances to experiment; these may be short, but they are far more difficult to pen than my typical free verse. so much to capture in so few words.
