Winter Haikus

There's a challenge at (in)courage that I am joining. It's an artistry challenge to create and stir our souls.

Today's challenge is to write a haiku set in winter. I started writing and Katie came over to see what I was doing. She and I worked on haikus together. Here's my first one:

Winter is in me
Silently frozen down deep
His warmth will melt me


After explaining a haiku to Katie (5 syllables, 7 syllables, 5 syllables), she came up with this:

Jesus’s birthday
Icy crystals falling on me
Snow is white and cold

And then, my last haiku:

This winter’s tight grip
Can’t stop spring’s tiny whispers.
I see buds outside!


I'd love to see you join in the challenge too. Leave your haiku in the comments, or link to it on your blog.
