December Freeze

river willows bend

tresses trail in iced water

distant sun shivers

Even reading these words made me shiver. How the willows must weep in the abject cold! Its no surprising even the distant sun shivered. An amazing Haiku, dear Chris!

[Chris Shaw]

This one was was quite something to look at DIVYA. It certainly was the coldest type of day, but had its own brand of beauty. Thank you dear poet. You are always so supportive with your reviews. 💐

[DIVYA]

It made for stunning imagery!
You're most welcome, my friend!

[Chris Shaw]
