Overcast Winter: December Entry

*NeoDeath90* · Dec 14, 2008, 04:19 PM

This month, though i know it has almost no chance to win, I will write a haiku:

Snow dances down from
The gray clouded heavens which
Envelope our world

It is difficult to win with eastern poetry, especially haiku, kudo to you for trying though. I used a sedoka which is a variation of waka the same style haiku is derived from. It is difficult. I wrote a haiku about winter in the poetry section a while back. That style does not lend itself to the english language easily.

I'm not trying to win, guys. The rule was i had to use a style different than my preffered, and a haiku was the first to pop into my head.
