The Ritual of Winter Challenge Winners
Welcome to the Winners Announcement for The Ritual of Winter challenge. This prompt focused on winter rituals and the meaning that settles into them over time. The top pieces stay grounded in ordinary acts and repeated routines, letting winter shape the work through pace, attention, and restraint.

I never thought about writing a Drabble in a poem form. How clever. Although I did a longer poem made up of five senryus.
Glad it worked out and impressed with the Drabble verse
