Sometimes when I walk across the beaver dam through the deep snow, I can feel a vibration under my feet in the stillness and hear a faint girgling sound where the water goes over the dam. A Haiku is the thought that comes to mind.

Below white stillness

Beneath solid ice rivers

Water, silent, flows

Haikus are fun to write.  I like to write them in the old fashion way (five syllables, 7 syllables, then 5 syllables again)  Try it.  I’m sure you will like it too!

This is how the poem divides into syllables:

Be/low /white/ still/ness    5

Be/neath sol/id /ice ri/vers  7

Wa/ter si/lent /flows  5
