Bio Sketch
Don Baird is a ponderer in mind, feelings, and words. Currently, he is a simple person living a complex life as though it is simple. Don not only writes haiku but teaches it as well. His passion is to encourage as many folks as possible to jot down what they happen to notice in the comings and goings of all things — sharing their insight, through haiku, about the Universe's continuum of transformation.
The pace of a one-liner and the visually effective use of repetition lift the poem out of the ordinary, successfully painting a winter landscape. Don's haiku reminds me of Basho's famous winter haiku:
ReplyDeletewinter solitude-
in a world of one colour
the sound of the wind
That is a really gorgeous haiku!
