Day 25: 40 days 'til 39

Today we're writing a poem. Pretty silly for someone who doesn't read much poetry. I've only written a few poems in my life, and only one that I remember was just because I felt like it (I wrote it in college, and I wish I could find it now. It's around somewhere I'm sure).

I like the form of Haiku, but I'm not sure I can carry it off. Here are a few attempts based on some workouts I've had in the last week:

racewalking in the snow
flakes falling furiously
wet feet oddly warm

mountains at sunrise
snow-capped, pink-hued, magical
a new day awaits

pushing my limits
feeling strong and powerful
joyful deep inside

Oh, I like your Haikus very much! I can feel the cold air...
