winter hibernates
frozen conversations thaw
heralds vibrant spring
In response to Carpe Diem , exploring beauty of haiku #1826 :Juxtaposition
A challenge to write a haiku in which we use juxtaposition.
Any time unlike things bump up against each other, you can describe it as a juxtaposition.
Juxtaposition of two contrasting items is often done deliberately in writing, music, or art β in order to highlight their differences.
Love that: “frozen conversations thaw”.
