A new Carpe Diem challenge.
In a recent post the Carpe Diem site introduced a new-to-me poet, Tomas Tranströmer. We are given a Tranströmer haiku as an inspiration. The season word is ‘frigid’ which makes it definitely winter.
I’m not sure how close I’ve come to the model. but mine is winter too.
Willow trees lean over
the moonlit river, where ice
glitters like starlight.
What a beauty!

Thank you for your comment. I live in an area where oaks are rare but willows are everywhere and make the landscape.
