the world’s cold breath mists
billows among black tree shapes
drifting pale and grey
at this year’s end I search clouds
for signs of a beginning

Lovely. Happy NY, Jane. All the best.
Thank you. All the best to you too. Does anyone ever call you Bojangles?
You have the exclusive right
I like the sound of it. It’s like something that glitters on a Christmas tree 🙂
Lol.
Lovely! Happy New Year Jane!
Thank you, Christine 🙂 I hope you have a splendid start to the year too.
I hope you soon see bright sunshine!
New beginnings 💜

#Haiku Happenings #8: Jane Dougherty’s latest #tanka for my current #haikai challenge!
Thank you, Frank 🙂
The sunshine always shines behind the fog!
I wouldn’t mind seeing it a bit more often 🙂
You might have to change locations for that! :>)
We should get a glimpse before January’s out 🙂
