Very nice Carol. A little different sentiment then Winter's Teardrops but very lovely. I'm glad you told me about it. Fits right in to MY theme for the day. I live in New England just outside of Boston and if I go out I'll be crying frozen crystal tears. We're freezing our tushes off. Ha ha

    Wow...I'm thrilled that you took the time to look for my poem. I'm not a poet (like you) so I'm flattered. I live in northern Illinois northwest of Chicago...It's about 16 degrees today...a heat wave since the last few days were below zero. Thank you so much for stopping by...smiles, Carol

As usual an excellent contest entry and
a Haiku that in few words gives a clear
indication of the subject matter.
Good luck with it Carol...

I read your weeping trees haiku,

looks good to me. I think winter icicles are one of my favorite parts of winter, especially when you have a tree just glisten with them, so the unforgiving cold and emotion of winter being angry worked nicely, to me.

    I hate winter unless I can stay inside and look out at the beautiful landscape. I think my mind was listening to the poor barren trees freezing out there. Thanks for the review. Carol

A lovely haiku poem and contest entry. It personifies winter in three short lines perfectly bringing strong images to mind without looking at your art work. Good luck in the competition.

This is a unique twist on those little frozen droplets. Winter's angry wrath bringing frozen tears. I'm glad I live in SC and get to only occasionally see this beauty. Nice descriptive haiku Love, Jean

Hi, Sis, such a 'feeling' poem, with words that express an emotion of harsh reality. each line enhances the next and penetrates right through the reader's body, as he feels the cold and frozen tears. wonderful choice of words sis to carry this winter chill into the bones. hugs from Me

    A poet I am not, but I liked this one. Unfortunately, it wouldn't let me enter the writing prompt and I placed it in the wrong contest. Now I have to revise. Not enough syllables. I am glad that it is hot there so you can't have any frozen tears...Hugs, Carol

Your 3/5/3 already describes winter well, as an icy and angry season. The title is strong, too. However, I just peeped the contest and it says 5/7/5. Any plans of adding syllables?

    Yeah...I wrote this for the writing prompt which asked for 3/5/3..then it wouldn't let me enter...I popped it into this one with out thinking...Now I shall have to revise it. Thought I'd wait until the certificate expires though...not confuse anyone else...I do that enought! Smiles, Carol

Oh, good one BeginAgain! I really like your haiku. Icy breath, frozen tears, a weeping tree-fabulous!! You brought it to life. Haiku are so fun to write. Your picture was perfect for this too. Good luck to you.

BEAUTIFUL!!! You have put into a few short words, images of fun and excitement. This is what winter is and all view these words in their own way. I choose to put them in a context that gives me a fun and excited beginning of winter.:)

This is lovely. I have tried haiku and find it one of the most difficult to master. This is beautifully written, wonderful description of Winter's frozen tears. Great entry for the contest. I sincerely wish you all the best.
