Hello Jan, you are always at your best. Winter and roses don't go together. LOL I live in Texas, and we can't escape this. Great winter haiku, one of the best I've read, and believe me, I've read lots of haiku two years ago. I can actually picture this without the picture above. Always been a FAN... Love LINDA

Jan, congratulations on your win! There is wonderful flow in your haiku with your well chosen, strongly visual words like "came to call," "clothed", "droop." So sensory. Hugs :)
