    Your haiku evokes such warm feelings despite the cold imagery. The epanalepsis in the first line creates a wonderful presence where we start exactly where we finish, mirroring that intimate, shared air. It feels as though the beauty of the person and the winter chill combined to take your breath away, leaving only a susurration where words used to be. Best of luck in the challenge Jazzy, and thank you for reading one of mine. 🤗❤️

    Love it, Jazzy! This one feels light and sad at the same time, but I could be misinterpreting it. Either way the words are beautiful
