Haiku by Nells Wasilewski
leaves long gone
fierce winter winds blow--bare limbs
shiver in protest
a cold winter night
warmth radiates between us
your heart next to mine
early spring morning
frost lingers--buttercups glisten
winter's fleeing kiss
icy waves spew wrath
upon a deserted shore
drowning self pity
Nells Wasilewski lives in a small southern town, seventy miles southeast of Nashville, Tennessee with her husband, Walter.
