This is a pretty good poem. I love winter time and I love the snow. I love watching it falling when there isn't a sound anywhere. Its so peaceful and quiet that somehow it creates its own melodies without a sound. Great job!!
-
the idea of this is beautiful. Most haiku are written with no uppercase letters and are center aligned to show off the beautiful form. Please feel free to edit. I'll check back before the contest closes. thank you for entering. I love the imagery by the way,

Haiku perfection. You've done the traditional syllable count, woven in a metaphor and provided that last line with the 'aha' reaction. "Singing down the snow." that is a beautiful and powerful piece of imagery.

I love the last line ... singing down the snow. Lyrical feel to it. Thank you so much for the entry.
-
I just love the imagery in your words. I can actually feel the cold. (well, the air did just come on)
Good luck in the contest, this is awesome.
