Snow

gentle comes the snow
wafting cool kisses of white
on my outstretched tongue

Only two weeks ago, on my way into town I stuck my tongue out and caught a snowflake. A split second of sensual joy- just as you captured it in only three lines. That's all it needed. Lovely Haiku. From Mister Viv x

I'm pretty far from being a child - but I still like to catch snowflakes on my tongue. I'm glad you enjoyed!
