Great last line, Kim. I wrote a short piece on something like this in which I noticed small animals foot prints in fresh snow. As always thank you for taking time to read me. Best to you. / M

I have something to be very thankful for and that is we don't have pristine snow. Your haiku is awesome. Thanks for the visit to my page. Sara
