1
waking    from a    long sleep
a dusting of snow

2
frozen moon--
dogs cruising streets
in a wake of steam

3
bitter cold day,
wind-tossed leaves
becoming snowflakes

4
steam escaping...
when did I take up smoking

5
wind chill    plummets
my hope for spring

6
winter brilliance  
the Milky Way
casts a farmer's shadow

7
arctic storm
inverted umbrellas
harvesting snow

8
storm watch at dusk--
north-bound plane
swallowed whole

9
windows
shutting out the chill,
moonlight spills in

10
snow melts--
bones of winter
grin from the grass
This is one of three sets of 10 short pieces each that are from past collections from my gallery. Some are personal favorites, some are watcher/reader favorites, and some have never appeared because they didn't make it into a previous collection, till now. I feel some of these have gotten lost in the crowd and so I wanted to bring them back out into the light for those who might never have had the chance to see them otherwise. Out of the thirty pieces I chose, they break down into three categories: winter theme, sensual, and senryu.

This particular set consists of haiku/senryu with a winter theme.
