Winter Solitude

Winter Solitude - form Summary

Haiku's Spare, Sensory Focus

This poem is a three-line haiku that uses extreme brevity to fix a single, immediate scene. A seasonal word (winter) sets a tonal field of visual monotony, then a sudden auditory detail—the wind—breaks that stillness. The haiku's compressed form and the juxtaposition of one-color silence with sound create an instant of awareness and emotional resonance, asking the reader to hold the perceptual shift rather than narrate it.
