Watercolour

©2017 Charlene BrownOne quarter of the world’s Arctic ice dome hills, called pingos, are located in a region near Tuktoyaktut just east of the delta of the Mackenzie River. In various stages of growth and collapse, their striking profiles dominate the skyline in this very flat area even though they are only 5 to 36 meters in height.
I plan to use this painting in my Haiku project. I wonder if there is any significance in the fact that their other name, hydrolaccolith, has five syllables ?
