Haiku Friday: The Lingering Winter

 

As a kid in Detroit, late February was always the worst. Winter had overstayed its welcome, and the weather would shift between snow, slush and cold rain. In Minnesota, that phase is delayed some, but still very real.
 
I know you all live in different places, so let's haiku about what it is like there. Here, I will go first...
 
The rain hits the snow
And just makes it harder
Cold encasing cold.
 
Now it is your turn! Just use the 5/7/5 syllable formula, and have some fun!

Comments:
Snow, brilliant blue sky
Frigid air. Sparkling landscape.
Our world is washed clean.

 
The cold rain dampens
my mood. My skis sit unused,
with no snow outside.
(Desiree)
 
Sunshine and cold fog,
Texas weather is nutty,
The north wind, cruel.
 
The Medievalist
 
Magnolia blooms
Caught my eye other day
Way, way too early

Daffy's and crocus
Spring from their earthen lairs
Making me hopeful

 
Back steps' snow must be
swept in daytime or icy
treachery awaits.
 
Minneapolis
Winters mean big bucks for the
Airline industry
 
Tim
 
The ground is sodden
Winter frost eluded us
Early tick season
 
February gives
reasons to leave, cheap fares and
early spring somewhere
