[There was a terrific wind storm during the night recently. The evidence of it's power was seen the next morning on the snow under the elm trees in our front yard.]
From "The Haiku Anthology" I became interested in Haiku and I have since written numerous haiku, senyru, and tanka. "Masago", my haiku pen-name, means "grain(s) of sand" in Japanese. I have recently started learning Esperanto and Japanese. A few years ago I developed a new eastern verse form which we now call 'Renhai'.

Morning after...
eight or nine twigs
on the snow.
Link with 937: Nine

Thank goodness it wasn't a branch or a trunk.
When our neighbors Maple Tree came down it shook our house. (Of course it was brought down by the tree man, but it still came down kaboom)
i love it when twigs write characters on the snow
cheers
nice observation

A little different than I first expected, but all storms have their victims.
i love this one!
works perfectly with me even without explanation... morning after is such an intriguing line :)
Pamela: Ouch...we have some giant 60-plus-year-old trees around our house. Sometimes I wonder about them. Hopefully they'll hold up another 60+ years.
Floots: Yes, Nature leaving a message. :-) Cheers.
John: Thank you.
Pat: Now you've got me wondering what you first thought was. :-)
Polona: I hadn't intended extra intrigue...I'm glad it works. Thanks!
