Devika:
Old year
out of date --
good morning new year!
- We got just some hours sun, - if it's clear sky. (In Lappland there is no sun; it's rising again on January some day.)
We got quite cold also here; -20 Celcius. Today, 4th, -5 Celcius. No problem.
Now we have snow also, and some-one even skied here.
Our skies are somewhere in Eastern Finland; usually we have not enough snow here in Turku, but a few weeks only... We have not travelled eastwards during winter time since my father-in-law died some years ago. (Mother-in-law spends her winter months in Portugal.)
okay....Your mother in law is very interesting :)
But, here its real bad after a rain yesterday....somewhere from the sky, there's light seeping through...
I love freezing cold...but only problem is that I have to punch the keys for about six to eight hours and it pains too much!
wishes,
devika
'withered snow' interesting
much love

First thought: great first line, but the second means the same. Second thught: and if it wasn't the snow but the lyrical I which is out of date? So line three opened another level of feeling the haiku. Very good, Tikkis.
Best wishes

Technically I wrote that text after reading some Bashoo's haiku. Tasting what whithering is, at the same time I put a photo where two candles were burning in the snow into my wife's blog. I got some extra photos left from that set. ...
The snow; after it's not any more new snow, - Withered?
I tested how this combination works; withering and anyway quite new snow, just a few days old.
- And of course, who is withered, I think it's obvious.
The photo is not so good one; I took it with my automatic-pocket one. White snow between and on white snow, it's difficult.
And today (the 6th Jan.) is, I think, the coldest day this winter; -21 Celcius.
Our invert-type heating pump is still working, but we burn also some firewood in our fireplaces. It's inside + 20 Celcius, as required from that heating-pump.
The other place we are also living here in Turku there is an oil-powered central heating, and it's working also OK.
Devika:
The sun is waiting --
still some deep-frozen snow
in our global ice box
global ice box
soon to melt -- volcanoes
waiting to erupt!
or is it??
sun looking for
clouds....just
snow, snow and snow
whatever, i have other work to do :)
wishes,
devika
I really like this. :)
