I feel a bit silly after writing my love of spring weather and embracing that “feel good” ambiance on my way to work this afternoon…hence the tanka, Love is in the air.  As I stepped out tonight to come home at  22:00, this is what I saw…I felt like writing a poem starting with SNOW is a 4-letter word but decided to turn this into an opportunity and write a more thought-provoking “free style” haiku for this haiga festival.

 

 

 

 

 

scribbles a haiku
sunnyside of sidewalk
now lost in snow

 ~

now lost in snow
mind slips in overcast
too spent to resume
blow blow, let the wind blow
weary brain may recover
