The Next Contender (Haiku)

From frigid sidelines,
she cheers on the yellow orb
fighting northern blasts

having witnessed moons
in December's arena
box old man winter

the next contender
favored to beat all her blues
old fashioned Christmas

A contest entry

Please tell me what you think

    funny that you would write even in metaphor about winter to this image because we moved to So Cal from Ohio 3 years ago and my daughter misses every aspect of winter, as do i i especially love the last stanza here. job well done thanks for entering and good luck. be well and be blessed
