1. Gorgeous haiku and i like that word ‘hoar-frost’ … maybe that’s the word i sought for instead of ‘ripe’ as i have used.

   • Yes hoar-frost or rime seems to be the right word.. in Swedish it is rimfrost.. 🙂

2. Wow! 🙂

3. Bjorn, Lovely. The branches do look a bit like lace. Well written. 🙂 — Suzanne

4. Wonderful!

5. Very creative 🙂

6. Oh, spinster lace — very nice! Reminds me of the parlor in my great aunt Pearl’s house. Lots of lace everywhere – curtains, doilies — even her collars. 🙂

7. Your haiku are amazing. Spinster’s lace – wonderful image!

8. Yes, that lace, though not quite of a spinster; my grandmothers doilies.

   Don’t know about Elsa… I haven’t gotten to Disney’s Frozen.
   I was mixing Medusa with perhaps the Ice Queen from Narnia, but I don’t remember her name.

   • I think here name was only mentioned from her previous world from “the Magician’s nephew” and it was Jadis I think.. There was a Hans-Christian Andersen Ice-queen as well.

     • More along the lines of Women who are ‘ice queens’ –
       emotionally. Not really based on any one – save Medusa who actually did turn foe into stone.

       Interesting to not that Medusa started out as a beauty.

9. just love that last line

10. I wonder what a spinster would think about this? 😉

11. Love the spinster’s lace. Kind of cold and sentimental.

12. Perfect cutting line between the two ethereal images. In my mind, I see this as a haiga, as the words really drawn the gossamer picture.

13. I feel the chill from hearing the viewinyour words.

14. nice spinsters lace … interesting that the Swedish word for hoar-frost is rimfrost .. I like that sound.
