Glare Ice

the Crow looks at me....

                       perched atop sub-zero tree

glass between our thoughts

Good one. I got a chuckle. I have only seen a few winters like that, but I could feel the scene. Congrats on your work being on Brian's winners' list. Sara

Cool for sure, James. Reminds me of Arlo Guthrie tune. "old crow watching from a tree...he's got his hungry eye on me..." I sang it as I wrote it but that may not have come across too well! :) Cool Haiku! -Robert

Man that sounds very cold, very cold. Keep the icicle pen moving so that it won't totally freeze the ink. Sara

Ah, we want to know exactly what this crow was thinking, Jimbo! Perhaps he thought your hair might make a warmer next than the "sub-zero tree." Very clever and thought-provoking. Love, Carolyn
