December is here and Carpe Diem prompt is withering wind, which fits the las few days weather quite well.
icicles and snow
trees skeletal finger claws
northern icy wind

northern icy wind
husky voices protecting
painful to breathe
~~
painful to breathe
covered faces blushing
withering wind

Awesome cascade Bjorn. So … in your country winter has already arrived. Thank you for participating in Carpe Diem.
a perfect description of those dreadful northern winds…including the difficulty in breathing – I relate to that
oooo, the last stanza is the most beautiful of all. Wow!
Thank you
Wonderful set of haiku and photo ~ love them all ~ hard to chose which line I like best ~ All great! ~ (A Creative Harbor) ^_^
Thank you 🙂
Those clawing skeletal fingers make me shiver with fear, not delight!
Withering Wind
Good. That my purpose.
