darkness increases
gathering the light of stars
turning in stillness
My December grid and words for Frank Tassone’s #Haikai Challenge of Advent.

December and winter have indeed arrived.
You have managed to make a grid and a poem that ought to feel cold, but there’s warmth there too.

Wow! I love your grid!! How big are the squares? Very beautiful the way you designed it. ๐
We had our first snowfall yesterday. โ๏ธ It has been too cold here to snow. Thankful it has warmed up a little.

Thanks Jill. I usually work with 1/2 inch squares. This was actually based on an old sweater design I did–I thought it looked wintery.
We had snow yesterday too, but also ice–that’s no fun.
