Zephyr Asking folks to remember guidelines, 2 comments on other poems per one post of your own pretty please.! It is possible to learn a lot by considering other peoples poems and it will help your own poetic craft. Don't be shy,and stick to critique of the poem - not the poet., if you are new to critique, just share what you liked and what worked for you in the poem, and anything that did not work for you.

Some of my haiku inspired by this winter, please add some of yours

Winter Ku

cautiously
the cat walks on water -
ice on pond

thick snow
wild boar tracks to hole
in iced pond

winter sun
puss seeks it's warmth
from the porch.

pinhead rainbows
glisten on stardrops -
sun on snowmelt

snow storm
the doctor calls
in off-roader

snowy monday
doctor slithers down path
in high heels

candied grass
sunshine
licks it clean

winter gloom
two vibrant goldfinch
lift my mood

arctic night
puss in white boots
hunts prey

icy morning
the cat pirrhouettes
lands - legs splayed.
