william,
Thank you for the link. I’ve always wanted to visit Scotland, and love reading history of my favorite places.
Nice! And, the perfect way to start a day!
Sandy,
Thanks. Glad you liked the coffee haiku. I’ll be making my regular visits again soon. 🙂
I don’t ever get to experience a snowy cold winter day, but you make it sound lovely.
Flor Gurner,
I didn’t get much snow at all growing up, but I did get cold weather. I’d have to say that this year I’ve had more than enough snow. I think we’ve had bit of snow every day this week. 😦 I shouldn’t complain. Snowfall is really beautiful. Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment.
Oh, I’ve always thought of winter mornings as white or gray, but now I like calling them blue. Nice perspective, love the haiku! Congrats on the award, too! 😀
Hi Tacy,
I think winter has a lot more color to it than people give it credit for. I notice green, even in winter, because we are surrounded by pines. My favorite winter color is the lavender and blue you can seen early in the morning or just before sunset. Glad you liked the haiku. Have a great weekend. 🙂

Completely sums up everything a winter morning should be. ^_^
Joseph,
Lol. That’s exactly how I feel when I take that first sip of coffee. No matter what else is going on, in that one moment, everything is right. 😉

Glad you liked the haiku, and thank you for your encouragement. I’ll be stopping by to read your poem of the day later. 🙂
Awesome award for an awesome poetess!!! Congratulations.
I like the double blue in the haiku: Blue winter morning and blue hands. Yes, good description. You reel us back in to the warmth with the hot coffee!! One of my favorite things. I so like this haiku. With the white stuff still overflowing here and so much cold it warms my innards to read your lovely work.
Technobabe,
Howdy. What a lovely comment. You warmed me right back. Did you visit the Word of the Month site and read the poems? There are some lovely ones. Stopping by your place later.

Now I miss my coffee days… I’m going to check your nominee because I trust your judgement
SeraphSili,
I think the smell of coffee is a lot of what I enjoy about it. Maybe you could just smell some every once in a while. 🙂
I see hot coffee with fresh smell plus thite snow outside your door,
what comparison and contrast mental images from your post.
beautiful Haiku!
😉
Jingle,
Thank you for the thoughtful comment. Happy Rally day to you. 🙂
lovely.
S Basu,
Thank you for the complement and the visit. 🙂
Absolutely wonderful haiku. You made that moment in winter so much more complete by writing it down.
Leslie,
Good day to you, my friend. Glad you liked the coffee haiku. I love that first sip of coffee on a cold morning. Did you read the faerie poem? I based it on a garden we used to have.
yum.
sweetiegirlz,
Howdy! Like your cup a joe, do you? Me too. Thanks for stopping by. 🙂
I like the idea of a hot cuppa on a cold winter morning.
Lisa,
I drink twice the amount of coffee in winter that I do in summer (2 or 3 cups instead of 1). I started to write it so the reader knew it was flavored or chocolate flavored coffee. Then I thought, “Maybe the reader won’t like chocolate coffee . . . .” So it stayed universal. Of course, some people don’t even drink coffee but they’ll understand the idea of holding something warm, inviting, and comforting. Thanks for stopping by. 🙂
