Respite

                               jagged icicles 
                           drops of frigid winter 
                         quench sparrow’s thirst

Bill Baker Date: 1/15/2022 3:29:00 PM Lovely Haiku, Laura, and thanks for thinking of my little feathered friends. :-) I worry sometimes about the little birds we feed, when it goes below freezing. Smiles and blessing, Bill Login to Reply

John Watt Date: 1/12/2022 10:53:00 PM I love the contrast of jagged/frigid with the little sparrow just patiently hoping for a few drops of water to drink. Lovely imagery. Login to Reply
