September Heights #09 – Gloss
***
October morning
Frost is crisp on flower lips
Gloss remains till spring
Gloss remains till spring
Though those flowers perish fast
Crispy frost stays on
Crispy frost stays on
Flowers bloom on icy glass
Varied shapes and size
Varied shapes and size
Snowflakes swirl in mist outside
Windows sparkle gloss
Windows sparkle gloss
It comes upon a morning
Early October…

Oooooo … “frost is crisp on flower lips” … LOVELY!
Thank you, Marie <3
I like the way you connect haiku, so they come a full circle. Crisp images.

Very nice cascading haiku ~ I specially like flowers bloom in icy glass ~
As haiku don’t end in rhymes, maybe you can tweak the last one to: early on October ~
Grace, thanks a lot! I edit as you recommend – it’s much better this way, indeed! Hugs, <3
Frost as gloss—I like that image!
Lost Gloss
I like the repeating lines and how it circles back to the beginning. Great piece, Mariya!
