quiet wonderful indeed.
this is lovely…so important to sing our praises to life’s simple pleasures.
thank you for gracing mine.
warmly,
rebecca
I love to be warm and toasty inside when it’s rainy and windy outside. Your haiku expresses this quite well.
I love the feel of all of your words. They are great and onomatopoeic: “window whipped, tapping” and “fire crackling close”– fabulous. One can hear the wind tapping out a tale with sharp, cool fingers and the fire’s embers crackling, the only sound inside the quiet house. It is a lovely set of haikus.
Happy Fall!

There was a warmth to these. Lovely.
Rain outside certainly adds a frisson to the warmth inside!
‘window whipped…’ i like that line so much. great magpie.
Love the photo. And the double ‘ku. There’s nothing more cozy than a rainy day and a toasty fire. Both rain and wind certainly have their secrets to tell.

Very good
I love listening to rain against the window when I’m cozy in bed… Nice Magpie!

Thank you,
Peace,

Oh, this makes me feel so cozy….languishing in bed while the rain falls is heaven!
You perfectly described one of my favorite feelings. Being warm on the inside despite the storm.
I love “quiet wonderful”
Nicely written! I think I can hear the rain.
Ah, your poem makes me feel warm and comfortable. A lovely magpie!
Nice poetry… love quiet wonderful.
thank you. appreciate the feedback from my peers out there… one never knows… there’s something about a fire… contained, of course, an unusual quality of mystical power… and the same can be said abt rain falling, whether just a soft steady drizzle or a constant crashing curtain of rushing rain…
