That time of year when snow blankets everything - we rarely have snow in South Africa - perhaps once every 6 or 7 years, love picture postcards, documentaries and films that depict a pending white Christmas. Great write Robert! Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.

Love that image-laden last line - 'garlanded with snow' -- and such a creative garland at that, i.e., all-white! Beautifully written, Bob! Warm wishes, Gershon

Thank you, Casarah. I don't usually write Haiku but thought I would give it a shot. Nice to hear from you and best to you as you continue your poetical journey - Bob H
