A nicely complex (but not too much so) haiku...I enjoyed it.

Thank you, Anne-Lise. I enjoyed your - Haiku X 166 - Snow - too :) Congrats on your win and for the lovely image chosen. Where I live the average snowfall is zero inches. So I guess you can say where I live, "there pepper grows!" ;) ~Mark

Glad to see this one, Mark. I always love when time falls behind and I get that extra hour sleep!! i heard they are gonna do away with daylight savings though, so I am confused about what will happen. I think maybe no setting the clock forward in the spring? Congrats here on your win
