I must confess that I did not know the meaning of haiku and had to look it up. It is always fun to learn about something new. Winter nights are quiet aren't they- no late evening song birds or mating insects- just the sound of your feet as they crunch on the snow.
Like your favorite flooded cave, your kindness is deep. You have a strong work ethic and are not afraid to hop to it to get the job done. Far from a flaky frog, you don’t jump to conclusions. Ever since you were a tadpole, you’ve been easygoing and likeable and are a good leader without being mossy, so other frogs lean on you without knowing it. Thanks to Michelle at Rambling Woods :)
