Here I use a haiku by Chevrefeuille to create a “troiku” which is a unique form invented by our host at Carpe Diem Haiku Kai. Like a Russian troika, the original haiku is the “sleigh” pulled by the 3 “horses”/haiku verses.
silent night
snow falls softly on the graveyard
the Savior is born

on a silent night
cold moon casts wolf’s grey shadow
abrupt bunny tracks
_____
snow falls softly on
the graveyard where family
lays fir bough wreath
_____
the Savior is born!
child in manger embodies
resurrection hope
