Winter's Veil

The white of winter
like a virgin bride
glistens in pureness.

Is this for the contest, George. (in case it is, he wants seven syllables in the middle line) but if it 's not for the contest,it is just FINE for syllable count of a modern haiku. a pretty picture! LUv, Andrea

Oh, you must live in an area where it snows to be able to describe it so well. Indeed, newly fallen snow has a "virgin" quality to it, George. A lovely "modern" haiku, the kind that doesn't have to conform to the 5-7-5 syllable count. If this is an entry for Michael's contest, you might ask him if the modern haiku is acceptable. Beautiful description! Love, Carolyn
