Although you bring up images of Winter (which I hate) the snap-shot of these dripping icicles is vivid. Great choice of phrases--"drip in slow harmony." Indeed, watching that can be hypnotic.

Lovely imagery of the icicles dripping. That gives us a seasonal reference. If they are dripping in harmony, we get the musical quality. Great artwork. Adding more syllables might allow you to enhance the meaning a bit more. (You have several to spare.) You might increase font size, too, for easier reading. Best of luck in the contest. judi

    Thank for this well thought out review. I agree with you on the font, but for the life of me cannot figure out how to do it. I appreciate the idea of more syllables, but I prefer the use of word economy in haiku. I appreciate your help
