trembling ice leaf
colors of winters passing
hope quivers in sun
This is a poetry,prose,Haiku and writing site
Edna St. Vincent Millay
1916
My candle burns at both ends;
It will not last the night;
But ah, my foes, and oh, my friends-
It gives a lovely light!

Nice, Melanie! I like the ice leaf as a carrier of hope and winter color!
hmmmm.....winter and warmth....and hope....nicely assemblage.
I really like this; I can see it! You've caught winter; it persists on our hope.
Beautiful image.
Shiver, shiver...
I love that word
'quivers'
Very nice haiku, Melanie. Yes, old Sol has not let us down since I've been around. :-)

On the senyru, this sums it up. "Senyru are like haiku, except they reveal an aspect of human nature juxtaposed with an image of nature. In contrast, haiku are short Japanese poems that invite us into a shared experience of nature." [ http://www.ehow.com/how_4495033_write-senyru.html - How to Write Senyru ]
Just a lot of people call both 'haiku' and don't worry about things.

Oh quivering ice - so great, thanks for this lovely image.
I can see the leaf striving to break away on its own. Trying so hard.
I see winter melting away...nice take
Very poetic! Wea re all warming to hope as the sun strengthens, aren't we?
