late Spring:
a dust of snow remains
on green mountains.

white columns
rise from a mountain lake:
once mighty pines.

overnight snow
falls on a quiet city;
it awakes to white.

a snowy mountain.
a church, broad-shouldered & bright,
looks cold & bantam.

Huge but Hiding [Haiku]
beyond the city,
a massive mountain looms,
pretending to be clouds.

“A Shropshire Lad XXXVI” by A. E. Housman [w/ Audio]
White in the moon the long road lies,
The moon stands blank above;
White in the moon the long road lies
That leads me from my love.
Still hangs the hedge without a gust,
Still, still the shadows stay:
My feet upon the moonlit dust
Pursue the ceaseless way.
The world is round, so travellers tell,
And straight though reach the track,
Trudge on, trudge on, 'twill all be well,
The way will guide one back.
But ere the circle homeward hies,
Far, far must it remove:
White in the moon the long road lies
That leads me from my love.
NOTE: This poem is sometimes titled by its first line or an abbreviated form, thereof. So, it’s sometimes called: “White in the Moon the Long Road Lies.”
