This is a beautifully stated seasonal haiku. The text is a great size. The message is clearly stated and easily understood. I especially like your last line. The visual fits well. Good luck in the contest.

This poem really resonated with me! I found the author's words descriptive and creative. Silence is where I always find peace. The author's words are expressed well and flow and connect well. The artwork is perfect and compliments these words. Great Poem!

An excellent entry for the Haiku contest. Syllable requirements are met, it focuses on nature, and the third line is well done. The touches of alliteration are well done. Best wishes!

I am still warmed by the idea of this seasonal Haiku. Verse and artwork are synced nicely.

Stillness and silence, aside from their alliterative touch, are paired nicely. You also had the d-letter alliteration in your last line - nice!

Well done overall presentation for this contest entry.

All one has to do is look at the picture to feel the deep stillness of winter. The words you chose are lovely, and the artwork complements them. I wish you the best in the contest.

Beautifully written haiku, and a darn good haiku, yes, who knows what dwells in silence. There are things in life that we can't possibly perceive or understand. Beautifully written, and excellent post, good luck, blessings Roy
