 Upon earth's frosted face as
 Dawn greets her with warmth

I'm like freaking out right now. *five mins later* Okay, sorry for my minor freak-out. I've composed myself. This poem is so awesome. I don't have any word to describe it. But it's gorgeous. I don't think you understand how difficult it is to get actual meaning in a haiku (maybe you do), but it's hard. I can't even do it. So this? This is epic. The personification is purely spot-on, and.. I can't. I'm gonna blow up. But honestly, really really awesome. Really.

                                            I'm basically echoing sanddycandy, but i agree with her. I really like the simplicity of this piece. Personally i don't love Haiku because of how short it is and i find it's a real skill to get a proper meaning into such a short piece and i think you've done it perfectly. i think if u lengthened it, you could make it better, but other than that i love this :D
