Twelfth Night

is winter

Consider this the mood piece of a retired English teacher.

Monika said...: Ahhh ! Brillant ! Shakespeare and the twelfth night (of the time between Christmas and the Feast of the three Kings...)

( There is a similar tradition in French, called Les douze petits mois.)

Being interested in "intertextuality", I really love your haiku. Let's hope that the wintery rest won't be too harsh...; 6:04 PM
