You are a wise man -- let the young and foolish battle the cold and snow, us more mature men are for warmth and love!! All the best.

Great third line! lines 1 & 2 to be more haiku you must pick 1 topic (snow covered power lines-outside our window buzz:warm sheets next to you) ( trees creak- with the weight of snow: you warm my sheets) Making any sense yet? Light & Love

Yes, I think I may be getting what you are saying -- the first two line are the same related subject "wind snow" and what wind snow does . . . thus you saw it as two separate topics -- Non-haiku . . . I will need to work on this some more. Thank-you for your feedback.

I have been to the UK many times -- last Xmas we spent it in London and Edinburgh . . . loved the outdoor Christmas markets!! What area of the UK do you live? All the best and thank-you for all of your support.
