bill,
our relentless winter continues...
8 inches of snow yesterday on top of 10 already...
3-6 more tomorrow night...
2-4 more wednesday...

temps on tuesday to nosedive...
high temps the rest of the week
between 0 & 5 above...
winds chills 25-35 below zero...

so, i offer this haiku from our last warm days which occured on october 21, 22 ,23 & 24... & to
make it a little warmer i'm adding
a touch of california dreamin' to it...


a Giants cap
on the jack-o-lantern...
indian summer

but no valley snow thankfully.

Bill,

This is an especially strong haiku. My favorite among the last dozen or so. There is motion, sound, and narrative in this haiku.

Always a pleasure to stop by here.

I'm going to be reading some Basho tonight.
