Peaceful is the dawn
Morning frost is hovering
Sunshine cuts the ice

Quiet, (A Haiku)

G'day, and welcome to my blog site. My name is Ivor Steven, I live in Geelong, Australia. I'm an ex-industrial chemist, and a retired plumber, and a former Carer of my wife(Carole), for 30 years, who suffered from severe MS. I Write poetry about those personal thoughts, throughout and beyond my life as a Carer. I've been blogging for over 2 years, and writing poems for 19 years. Of course a lot of my poems are about my favourite subject Carole, but since I've been blogging my writings have become quite varied, humourous, mystical, observational, and even a few monster/horror poems.

I enjoyed this haiku and scenery, ivor. I am content to enjoy frost vicariously. I did enjoy a walk in the rain this morning.
Hope you are well!

Morning is a sacred time of day, sometimes all I crave is the “quiet” I yearn for silence of the day. The crisp morning cuts through the air bringing clarity to thoughts and perception.

“Sunshine cuts the ice,” I love that line. I guess you are deep into winter and we are deep into summer. We are experiencing temps in the high 90’s (farenheit) with high humidity so that it feels like it’s 105 degree plus. Next weekend, we’re supposed to have highs in the 100’s. So a little ice sounds really nice right now! Wonderful Haiku! Mona
