We're expecting an ice storm today in my neck of the woods. The weirdness marches on -- summer earlier in the week, winter storm today. I'm hoping we'll see nothing but rain. We shall see.
Meanwhile, the Christmas countdown is on. For this, the next-to-last Jam before Christmas, I've picked Billy Idol for your listening pleasure. This is far from his best work, but what the heck, the tune is catchy and ... you can dance to it.
The price of admission today is a haiku on the topic of snow and/or ice.
Step lively but slow
On icy sidewalks, for one
False step means sore butt.
Oh, and lest we forget: On the 8th Day of Christmas, your true love gave to you ______________.
Have a great weekend!
Miss Begotten is one of my pet names for myself, for Southern Gothic reasons best kept to myself. Miss Begotten tries to speak plainly, but sometimes she tends to babble -- parenthetically, of course. It's never my intention to offend (and usually that's true - except on those [maybe not so] rare occasions when I mean it very friggin' much) but it sometimes happens, so if you're unusually easily offended...

Weather isn't it.
'Twas cold and calculated.
Snow Elf iced the guy.
Freezing rain falls down
On cold, cold Oklahomans
Downed lines crackling
Panic! Raid the store.
Drive the car off the damn road
That is snow time here
No Ice? Thats absurd!
Ok, What do you have?
Scotch and water please.
On the 8th day of Christmas my true love gave to me...

Greeny, your haiku also exhibits excellence. Dare I say it? It ... resonates.:)
VE, your haiku conveys "storm mania" in just a few words. Bravo!:)
Galen, my dear, you're on a real roll today. Good stuff, funny stuff, and ... naughty stuff.:-) Icy stuff is coming down, so let's go get out the Earl Grey, shall we?:)

With your heart
Freeze to being ice cold
Than bleed to death
Ps> come to think of it, either way you are dead...
From this frozen grave,
Of you I beg this request,
Just love one another.
The message I got from the video is that we shouldn't forget at this time of year the less fortunate who don't have a fully-stocked liquor cabinet.
Very nice dark haikus, Mona and Charles.
I rather got that impression, too, Puggy.:)
