Black wet nose so cold
Ears frosted by winter wind
Thick neck fur saves me

If You Love Me, You'll Do It
I met Jason when I was five years old. I could say that I loved him from the moment I saw him. He was so handsome to me and I felt in awe by his presence. When they introduced him as the new kid in school, I wanted to be his friend right away. I remember it like it was yesterday. I remember his smile and how he didn't seem shy. He appeared confident and ready to learn. I waved at him and said "hello," before anyone else could even say a word. He sat next to me, and I asked him if he wanted to be friends. He looked so happy as he said, "Yes!"

It looks freezing in that photo! I hope those ears warm up!
The sensory detail is perfect, I can feel the frost on the nose and the comfort of the fur.
love the picture!!!! stay warm
Gosh it looks old. Freezing weather this year. So happy you have furs for warmth.
Such a beautiful photo and haiku!!
Aw, I love this haiku! And those are such cute dogs!!
Loved the photo Andi- I too always wondered how warm dog's fur was. I have poodles so there hair is cut, so I wear a sweater on them. Great Entry! Nicely Donne!!
There's nothing like a warm hug from a dog. Good job.
Yeah, I often wonder how warm the dog’s fur really is. Great haiku, Andi!
That's one way of keeping warm
Looking good Andi! Love your very relatable and warming haiku. How's recovery going ?
I would freeze to death, lol. Loved your photo and Haiku!
