Far from the city,
snows and shadows are singing—
foxes find covert.

    The land is stark, full of scrub bush. The snow this offers a bit of style that carpets over the brush and adds a aura of beauty to a desolate place…

    Enjoyed the layers of meaning in the word “covert”.

    Like a dreamscape of the seasons meeting for a changing of the guard! Lovely mellowness and quiet pervade this image!

    Love the way the show appears to have melted in little circular areas. Such a pretty spot. Lots and lots of pretty shadows. It certainly looks like it is far from the city. genie

    Hope you enjoyed your trip to far from the city…
    We don’t have snow in Helsinki yet but only a couple of hundred kilometers and they have snow. Happy to live here! 🙂

    Nice sunny day…for some reason it looks like it should be warm there and that there shouldn’t be any snow! Looks can be deceiving! Thanks for stopping by at my SS.

    VERY good! I wish I had thought of “finding covert”! (that’s my highest compliment)
    I’m still smiling.

    I truly like the nature aspect in your haiku, which is staying true to the original haiku form. I loved reading this, especially the middle line “snows and shadows are singing”.
