Although I have become somewhat jaded about haikus of late, owing to the PLETHORA of ’em to be found in the blogosphere, I must say that this is a ripper, Janet! 🙂
Margaret, that makes your enjoyment of my haiku even more special. 🙂 Trying to convey an attitude/emotion in 17 syllables is the poetic equivalent to the 100 words stories I do for Friday Fictioneers, where every word has to count. Speaking of plethora, a lovely word, have you ever seen “The Three Amigos?” There’s a hilarious use of plethora in it and the whole movie is laughing-out-loud funny.
Lovely. We’ve got towels in the dryer now. And there is brunch going on in the kitchen that smells divine. Happy Saturday morning to you! 🙂
Have an amazing day!
Right back at you, Crystal. In the Chicago area, it’s a great day to stay inside with hot tea and a book, but I have to go out for a bit, so I’ll enjoy the beauty of the snow while trying to keep warm. At least the wind appears to have died down a bit.

11 words to describe what we all need on a cold day, BRAVO :o)
Might as well have some fun from doing the laundry. I also love the way the steam forms where the air vent is.

Wonderful warm feeling, beautiful said in just 11 words!
Amy, I’m glad it conveyed what I felt when I wrapped my hands in the sheet! 🙂 It was wonderful.

Ooops, I meat beautifully…
I meant to edit that for you. But I knew what you meant.
I can relate to that feeling. Don’t forget the sweet smell of fabric softener.
I don’t use fabric softener, but I like the smell of the vented air, although I was definitely NOT outside yesterday to smell it. 🙂

Such beautiful words make me almost miss the winter scene back home…. Almost. 😉
I know you’re not missing it, Hannah. That’s OK. Have fun and be warm.
