December (Down Under) - A Haiku | Step Away from the Console

Sunday, December 19, 2010

A balmy breeze blows,

as the memories of youth

flash in Christmas lights.

Inspired by Sunday Scribblings (#246 - December).

Saire said...: Awww thanks everyone! I'm hoping to do something a bit more detailed next week as I have a few days off over Christmas.

Maybe I shall take a step away from the haikus. We shall see! :); December 20, 2010 at 9:57 AM
Anonymous said...: Saire, just found your poetry at Sun. Scribblings. I loved your haiku, wistful, true.

If you do other forms, I will look forward to seeing those as well. I'm posting sporadically at the moment, doing a major move, but here's my December post:
