PROMPT: Cold Weather

How do you feel about cold weather?

In the abstract, sitting here in the tropics, I’m fond of the idea of winter. When I’m in cold weather, I’d prefer not to be.

Foul Wind [Lyric]

Trees are wagging,
Whipping, and waving
That were still but
A moment ago.
Dark clouds snuck in
With pattering rain,
But, oh, how those
Foul winds do blow!

Foresight [Senryū]

from the hilltop,
Spring downpour creeps nearer;
me, sans raingear.

cool autumn morn:
dead or in thaw?

then cool to gray.

Turbulent [Haiku]

turn the placid pond

The Gray [Haiku]

neighboring hill in clouds:
its dwellers in gray.

Pond Waves [Haiku]

windy day emulates
undulating seas.
