I don't know if I could stand to go outside in that. If I put on enough to keep warm, I probably would not be able to move. Soup mail. Keeping writing. Sara

Yeah, haikus rule; compressing a universal frame into 3 lines, withough missing a thing; shivers in my spine, needles and cylinders emerge from it due to the cold lines jojojo thanks for the experience!!=D

I love the way you take a term that would typically be used for summer and insert it into your winter creation. Fantastic! Best of luck in the contest, James. Blessings, Donna

Nice Haiku. A Deceptive form - it looks easier than it is to write them and you have done a good job here. Could use a little "frozen fun" today - it is a hot day in NYC. Peace Matthew Anish
