Haiku Friday: Hygge

 


"Hygge" is a Danish word for the idea of creating a warm, inviting atmosphere-- probably the best American equivalent is the way we use the word "cozy." This time of year, it is pretty important as a survival tool in northern climes, as winter drags on. 

So let's haiku about that this week! Here, I will go first:

Wood fire warmth, cider
The long, low light over snow
Happy indoor cat.

Now it is your turn. Just use the 5/7/5 syllable pattern, and have some fun!

Soft pillows on couch
Candles, plants and twinkly lights
Friendly dog by fire

Love reading good book
In front of our gas fireplace
On chilly mornings.

Meadow wears white gown
The fire and scotch beckon, then
Tony Bennett croons

Doggie on my lap.
Dog by my side. Dog by my
feet. Three dog hygge.

On Trump’s Greenland ambitions
