Wow. I love this. It says so much in so few words. I don't really understand the rules of Haiku but I know what I like and to me this is excellent. I wish you lots of luck in the competition. Jen.

Thank you so much!!
Comment from jessizero
I liked your poem, and the syllable count was correct. It seems a little weird that you mention the water being frozen then say it was cold. Still, it was good. Thank you for sharing, and best wishes to you.

If I think the person who was skating was skating on thin ice, and yes the epwater would be a tad coldish, I've never fell in water that cold, but I would imagine it would be awful, well done blessings Roy

I love the artwork of the chilly winter scene and the pond. You have written a lovely haiku for the contest.
Well done Gunner.
Blessings and best of luck

Having fallen through the ice in a pond while ice-skating as a teenager, I was able to relate to this way to well!

I hope someone like James Stewart was there to pull you out! (a nod to "It's A Wonderful Life") I wasn't expecting that last line and I find you're not only a very good writer but have a true sense of humor! Thanks for posting!-Sorry-just have 5 stars today.

Have a great day, and God bless.

Comment from Alexandra Trovato
This is a good haiku for the challenge. If I'm not mistaken, it seems tragic. I've lived near the Atlantic Ocean most of my life and I think lakes are more dangerous because people don't think they are. Forgive me if I missed the meaning but I do think your descriptive words were very good and that this was well written. Best wishes!
