a soft kiss
upon my skin
snowflake

softly as snowfall
she kisses, I feel it not
cool upon my skin

Softly like snowfall
she kisses, I feel it not
cold upon my skin

Softly so softly
you kiss me, I felt it not
not upon my skin

Hi Terry,
one thing that takes time to understand
(and it took me a long time!) is that haiku
should leave something for the readers to
discover on their own.
For example, if I understand the gist of what
you're telling us, this is something that came
to me...


her soft kiss
upon my skin...
snowflakes

Does the kiss feel like snowflakes? Does the kiss
happen while snow is falling? The reader must
try to imagine this...and feel the moment,
according to his/her own interpretation.
