We don't get snow here much but thinking of it as confetti is a nice thought. Congratulations on your winning work, a little late, of course. Sara K

Today as we were hit with a massive snow storm I came across this lovely poem. Sitting at the window watching "snowflakes nose diving". Wonderful imagery!

"Snowflakes" are "Winter's confetti" I completely agree, Valsa. I enjoy watching them drift all around, and then softly touch the ground. This is beautiful in every way. Congratulations my sweet friend, on Poem of the Day. My best to you. :) Hugs, Brandy

Great imagery and metaphors in your haiku. "snowflakes nose diving " -- Personification...... "like petals of white blossoms" Metaphorical..... "winter's confetti" -- Great Ah, line with deep meaning and metaphor..... Excellent haiku. To do this given the constraints of strict syllables not easy. Congratulations on your well deserved Potd
