Frigid--or--My Life in Winter

If that witch's tit
inside the icy brass bra
means cold, I'm colder.

The outside temps dropped
plummeting down to zero
The air feels frozen.

Car tops and windows
bridges, canals, streets, bike spokes
Ev'rything frosted.

So, madly I search
through cupboards and storage spots-
I MUST FIND THERMALS!

Haiku Friday

  1. I love the first part of your Haiku. My dad always says that about the witches tit....haha. There is another one too "Colder than a warlocks balls in a brass jockstrap" Thought you might enjoy that one!

  2. Burrrrr. Hubby and I were hunting gloves and hats the other morning for our 2 mile walk and the temp was only 38oF cool. I don't think we would have gone below 0o.

    Love the haiku especially the metaphor.

  8. We have had snow already here in NH, USA! Yuck.

  9. I hate, Hate, HATE the cold! That's one of the reasons I live someplace where snow is a very rare occurrence.

    I hope you can get warm and then stay warm until spring!

  11. And we, once again, had a warm-ish Halloween. My kids have yet to experience the pains of wearing winter coats over carefully planned costumes.

    So sorry to hear it has gotten that cold. Yuck.
