Braving the Chill

Haiku-

a skillful sentry...
keen eyes-all senses sharpened
blends in surroundings

~*~

Senryu-

i can brave this chill
not the below zero at home---
The snow queen’s domain

~*~

For John Freeman's "Natural and Beyond" Contest

Nice poetry! I believe the first one is a senryu. You stuck to the 5 7 5 format which is all to the good. Peace & Love Matthew Anish

Stunning poem, Annalise. I guess now that winter is coming around again, you'll be back in "The snow queen's domain." Bad girl, you're supposed to let me know when you post something. LOL Just kidding of course. Congratulations on your win in John's contest! Love, Carolyn
