Winter Haiku

Lets do a Winter time Haiku
since i was 5-7-5 we will not go by that strict form this time. if you are 4-6-5 I can deal with it infact if you have a very small poem that is effective bring it in to the contest.

Most important make a seasonal reference and an ahhaa! moment.

    So pleased with the recognition given to my verse. The Haiku is such a powerful form; thank-you to our host for giving us a theme and opportunity to write with brevity and impact. Congrats to all the winners here; I read many of these and found them all special and elemental to the season.
