Lack of luminous light love bought,
Darkness did give her a chase.
Open to no one was her,
Water beneath and air above.

Haikuverse HarvestJanuary juxtapose
More cold now
Beyond hot heat!
Cold cold air
Windy surprise;
Minus heat therapy?

Windy detours
New year in late January,
Oozing days forfeit;
Scent of the times!

Judgements and decisions...
