Comment from Joyce Long
This is really well done.
No wonder that you were the Contest Winner. Congratulation's.
Great example as the Snow Queen's dagger.
Keep up the good work.

This is a great Haiku and a very worthy contest winner.
Congratulations and very well done to you. I struggled
with this one, made a mess of it in the end.
The picture complements it perfectly.

There was no picture, as that was part of the prompt. None the less, thank you for the kind words. Sorry you struggled, but haiku sometimes aren't as easy as they look. Good luck next time
Comment from Gypsy Blue Rose
Hello :)
Nice job with this haiku about winter's icecles. Well chosen words. Two interconnected lines and a clever satori line. Good job!

Comment from Jeanie Mercer
I rate this five stars because of the poem itself. But a heads up here: rules say "white blackground and black text," and this is backwards. (Would not want you to be disqualified for such a technicality.) Good luck, Jeanie Mercer

Comment from Cinda
I liked how the poem fit the black background with white print to signify how white icicles do pierce the black winter night...It was evident you put a lot of thought into this poem...Thank you, for sharing and best wishes on the contest...Cinda

Thank you, Cinda. Unfortunately, I had the change the background to white and font to black, as that's what the rules of the contest required. None the less, I appreciate your review.

Thank you for this fabulous review, and I don't need a six just these great words and review.
Comment from Sambangi
Great imagination of winter in this short version of poetry. Black background with silver like text to represent winter snow on a darker night perfectly matches , but I'm afraid if rule would permit that. Rule says white background with black text only is permitted. But I give 5 star for the content. Good luck

Thank you, for the "heads up" I did change the background to white and the font to black. I missed that when I read the prompt. You're the only reviewer that mentioned that, and I really appreciate it. Also, thank you for the lovely review.

Comment from Unspoken94
These are so hard to review.
You have clearly created a haiku and it
clearly addresses the winter season.
I would have suggested some picture to help
the reader better understand what message you are wanting to send.
Good luck in the contest. -Bill

Bill, pictures were not allowed?? But I agree, a visual would have helped But then again the haiku should stand for itself.

I apologize. I didn't know. And you're right. Haiku's need not have pictures. I'm spoiled, however. -Bill
