Nice. You don't see many Haiku running around. I must admit, the message/meaning eludes me. I kinda sorta get it when I think about it as an afterthought, but that's the beauty of it as well: I can at least develop theories. It's not totally out there.
It's definitely one of those though provokers!
For that, I say good job.

Comment from Lucious Thudthocker
I liked this line, "Snow chills, bites night souls". It pulled me in for the ride, but "Rich joys, poor suffers" drops the floor out from under me. The brevity of the Haiku form is, to me, to reduce one thought or vision to but a few controlled syllables. I struggle to see the what is being said here. The commas are distracting.

I really liked the contrasting differences especially in the last line. You leave it open as well for interpretation for your readers. What does he mean rich joys, poor suffers? For me it meant that during winter you receive rich joys and the poor times suffer, they aren't existing. Good Hiaku.

A lovely haiku. I hadn't known before that activation, materialization, and tradition were the three phases of haiku, so you have educated as well as diverted me.

This was a very sound use of tactile imagery to produce a complete picture through haiku format. It matched the accompanying artwork perfectly. Thank you for sharing this work.

I can see how the poor would suffer in the winter. No money to pay the heating bill.
Yet the rich wouldn't mind the cold at all. The homeless would be the worst off in this kind of chill. "Cheers, feels bright sight in daylight", was a little confusing to me. I guess you mean that to some the bright daylight isn't so bad with the cold weather. Nice Haiku. V.A.

Hi Alcreative writer
Have to say that your haiku or should it be a senyru just didn't really work for me at all.
Thought the first line worked, as for the second-well it confused me completely.
the third line, in my opinion(what do i know anyway), was far too simplistic.
No offense intented.
Best wishes Peter

I loved this!!! This is my kind of poetry. Minimalistic and impactful like a cut from a butcher's knife. If you ever get a chance, take a look at my poems. I think you will appreciate them as well.
