This is the first assignment for Writing 201: Poetry. I have joined the WordPress Writing 201 Poetry Challenge – they will provide prompts and challenges regarding form and use of language EACH DAY. I will be unlikely to keep up but here goes anyway. The first day’s requirements were:
Water (tick)
Haiku (tick)
and use a simile … ah well … the whole poem is a simile innit?
Winter
Listen to the wind
Tomorrow walk on water
Carefully. Black Ice.
Hiking strike you – I mean, striking haiku – 🙂 – but isn’t that a metaphor rather than a smilie- I mean simile?

Walking on water made me think how … and then I read ‘black ice’. Nicely framed.

thanks – Framing is something I see after it is done – I can’t do it if I think about it.
