January comes her stacatto rain falls on labyrinths of ice

Beautiful, music makes us sort stuff out, and this poem about rain as a musical thing was very lovely...

I agree with your comments, Paige. I love the reflective tone that rain creates...you're right.

Each one a bullet to the heart of a person like me, who can't walk in the snow or ice anymore. oh, well...

I can relate....I don't walk or drive in the snow anymore...too treacherous. I err on the side of safety everytime. Have a pleasant day, Gershon!

Making it treacherous to walk on. Roll on spring. Lots of flooding here in the uk at the moment. Tom

I agree, Tom. Ice on top of snow is treacherous for humans and their cars...black ice. EEGADS. Sorry to hear about the flooding in the UK...is that normal for this time of year? We have tons of rain in late April through May...usually floods for a period of time. We live on high ground...so no worries. Stay warm and dry, Sara

You made a pretty haiku poem. The way you used the words in it is really great, and I even learned a new word from you, "staccato". I hope you have a great weekend, dear Sara!

you made my day, dear Sotto! :-) You are the vocabulary meister and yet I shared a new word with you. I'm delighted. Have a great weekend as well, your poetess friend in Texas, Sara

true, Tom. Walking and driving on ice is treacherous. Is it spring yet?
