Melting... (a Haiku)

Gently the snow falls
As soft as a lovers touch
Both melting ones heart

Beautifully romantic in both an emotional and visual sense.

Dear Liam,

This is a classic haiku which moves me, too. I find the complex simplicity of haiku most compelling, and have tried to express myself through the form over many years.

I think Basho would have admired your fine verse.

Cheers, Chris

PS Whilst I'm online, so to speak, I'd like to add that I've enjoyed all you recent work, no least because it has a musicality and wit which, again, reflects my interest in exploring the metamorphosis of poetry into song.
