Poetry Friday: Snow Flurry, Haiku

As I watch the flurry outside of my window, this haiku forms.

Snow Flurry

Delicate white flakes
lift their tutus to sashay
across the gray sky.

Lorie Ann Grover, 2008

    Lorie Ann! This is so lovely. And how perfect...my word verification is prima. Let the ballerinas dance!

    Lorie,

    Your haiku is as delicate as snowflakes. The snowflakes falling where I live aren't exactly sashying like ballerinas in tutus at the moment.

    Dance, snowflakes, dance!

    I recently found out that December 21st is U.S Haiku Day.
