Haiku A peaceful slumber Hibernation day is here Goodnight until spring
Haiku The winter sneaks up Like an army at wartime A ghost in the night
Haiku The prey camouflaged A predator on the hunt Both looking for food
Haiku An arrow of geese Dark dens where bears Lay snoring All these are the signs
Haiku The flurry of white a fresh blanket of crystals footprints in the snow
Haiku Crystal snowflakes fall Branches now powdered with snow Footprints chasing me
