Storm Dirk crosses France
Will Christmas night be quiet
And save our forests

More and more, I like this form to write. But I have to go back to classical form! Thank you Gabriel for your support!

Hi, hon... lovely poem... and this one is a Haiku... lol...
One change, perhaps... First line should be "Dark" storms... a dirk is a kind of dagger...

Thank you, Dee, for your nice comment. Just "Dirk" is the name of the storm, perhaps I have to write "Storm Dirk" instead of "Dirk storm"?

"Dark Dirk storm" should be interesting too, but not suit for haïku!

Thanks for the clarification on Dirk, malin. Yes, Storm Dirk might work better ..
Your second line is 8 beats however ... Perhaps you could frame it as a question given the passing storm (Dirk) ...
Will Christmas night be quiet
Overall, I like this - the piece asks can the violence of a storm be quieted on a holy night to spare the silent and tender.
