The January Sky

Haiku Inspired By The View From My Window

January blue sky

With crisp low temperatures

Welcome to Scotland

-

Haiku time.

So, in an effort to keep on track with posting something every day of the month (and year potentially), I decided to take inspiration from a recent Vocal Challenge and the view from my window. Maybe it's a cop-out by choosing a short poem, but a post is a post and this is all part of my experimentation and growth as a writer.

Thanks for reading!

    Not a copout! Haikus take a lot of thought, and this one was nicely done :) PS I've always wanted to visit Scotland. It's on my bucket list!!
