New Year Haiku 2012

  
 
36 winter riverbank
      

It's time for the Watermark New Year Haiku Collaborative Poem Dance! You are invited to add your haiku in the comments, or you can email it to me at blogdivaATsbpoetDOTcom (link at the bottom of the sidebar.)  Include a link to your site if you have one. Over the following few days, I'll pull the poems up into the post. Any haiku form is welcome.

Comments are currently moderated, which I don't usually do, but comment spam has been really bad the past weeks. Let's hope that improves with the new year. 

I'll add my haiku when I have one, and this post will stay at the top of Watermark into the New Year.

no falling snow
melt of  the snowman

hugs and New Year wishes –

[Note: the format on the older posts, below, got very strange when I redesigned Watermark last week. If I have the energy, I'll go back in and redo them. But no promises. And the new posts won't look like that.]
