Behind Winter Minichu

Winter don for the mystery— Of happenstance now frozen in; That shakes itself from Her history, The pace of whirling snowy flakes, In the night's long, long pass— The next morning to satiate. Shadow self en masse Dashed Cracked with glass Winter don for the mystery— In the night's long, long pass, Cracked with glass.

Did you ever win with this one. I am on a loser streak 5 in a row so I don't have much motivation to try minichu anymore. If I can, I will give this magic one a try

Hey, I didn't enter it. I didn't know if this met the criteria or not. Thanks so much for your interest in my poetry! :)

Oh, dear Paige, your minichu poem flows so well, it's amazing! How wonderfully you've described the mystery of frozen happenstance in winter, as the ambience really intrigues the soul in so many ways.. There's so much depth and imagery in this write and I can feel that you've conquered this form very well! I really like how that ending part creates a vivid dimension.. Keep writing and shining, sending you so much love, dear kind poetess :)
