  1. This is a "quiet" and "fresh" Christmas haiku infused with auditorily and emotionally evocative imagery.

    And below is my haiku set written in response to this "quietness" explored in Garry's haiku:

    Lost in the Silence

    Christmas Eve
    I refill my whiskey glass
    with snowlight

    Christmas morning
    the sound of snowflakes
    on snowflakes
