Shades Of Winter

white flakes blow on air 
leaving mists on window pane 
like frozen gray smoke 
while the ground shines in silver 
and trees are capped in white 

white lights hang at night 
and Christmas trees glow in red ~
blue shuns every door 

white Christmas spirit fills the air~
blue feelings loiter everywhere 

Forms: tanka, haiku, monoku 

*There's no winter season in our country so I used my imagination*
*I wrote this originally as entry in a contest, only to find out later that the formats I used did not fit the contest criteria. I share it anyway.*
