A Collection of Winter Haiku's

snow falling softly
clothing all the world in white
drifting aimlessly


arctic snow flurries
sweep across the barren lands
settling in drifts


ice glistening bright
vast expanse over the lake
now here until spring


icicles dangling
glittering silver droplets
slowly they will melt


slush everywhere slush
left behind by melting snow
land now watery

Richard Lamoureux Date: 11/18/2013 8:58:00 AM 1st and second haiku should be at the end because you are talking about melting which signify the end of winter. I would make the last haiku the first and the second last the second. Have I totally confused you now? *lol* whatever the order I love them all. Login to Reply Shadow Hamilton Date: 11/18/2013 9:08:00 AM yes you are right Richard these came from seeing a title called snowflake I have altered the order Shadow x smile hug
