"It was one of those March days
when the sun shines hot and the wind blows cold: when it is summer in the
light, and winter in the shade." Charles Dicken
Huddled by the lake
Ice, like shards of glass, splinters...
Cold returns to play
Today, the word is Return Of The Cold
What is Carpe Diem? Blog Owner, Kristjaan Panneman, describes it as: "a weblog on haiku. It's a new daily haiku meme where you can write a classical or non-classical haiku on a given prompt. Haiku is an ancient Japanese poetry form. A haiku has three short lines and describes a short moment (as short as the sound of a pebble thrown into water). Mostly a haiku counts 5-7-5 syllables and is sometimes called 'counted verse.'"
