Good Morning Sara. Hi. This is true and those diamonds are still around everywhere. You grace us with imagery and the format is perfectly executed including voice and tone. Winter is very picturesque as your entry but this season has been long and I so want Spring. Have a wonderful day. May it be all that it can be and better (smile). Love Peace and Blessings now and always to you and Bill. (smile)

thanks for your kind words about my wintry poem. I too am weary of winter and can understand, given your circumstances, how long this winter has been for you. Sending you hugs and prayers, Sara

The imagery you create with your words is always immaculate and once again you have created another haiku here so vivid in imagery.. I could continue with superlatives but would run out of words.. and also I do not like to over do it with feedback as it can sound a bit too much.. very nice my dear friend.

Ah this is beautiful as always dear Sara, your way with weaving haiku always is exceptional and leaves an impression. I remember this line from you “ shines like diamonds“ how you’ve described snowflakes as diamonds, a beautiful simile really. I love snow but i guess living in a place that snows might not be as fun as i probably dream of. Just visiting might give a different experience. Beautiful picture to go with this .. pleasure always reading your haiku, they always flow so well sweet sara

thank you, Ink, for your visit and for your lovely comments...I do like the line 'shines like diamonds.' So many things in nature do. You're right, living with snow day in and day out is different from just occasionally experiencing it. Glad you appreciated my words. Have a lovely evening, Sara

So pretty ! When the sun shines on a frosty window, it does sparkle, indeed. Your thoughts bring a smile, Sara. May you and Bill have a Very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Many wonderful blessings. :) Hugs, Brandy

Awh, yes, I can see those windows bejeweled with diamond-like frost.. Ahh, your descriptions are truly ethereal which transport me to a Dreamland, dear Sara. This haiku is really fascinating, woww. Although, we don't get snow in my city, but I would love to feel those snowflakes in my hands someday.. It really feels magical to me! :) sending you light, dear beautiful soul!

thank you, dear Hiya, for such beautiful comments. I'm glad my poem gave you a visual that you could easily grasp. We live in Texas and rarely get snow for more than a day. When writing this I was recalling the days when I lived in Indiana where snow began in November and didn't end until March. Wishing you a magical evening...hugs, Sara
