I jounce past the birse
Of hedges griseous with frost
Where cold throstles sike.
This haiku is based on the friday five at poefusion, where Michelle is challenging us to write a poem with the following rather unusual words:
jounce – to move with a jolting motion
birse – bristle or bristles
griseous – dappled with grey
throstle – a thrush
sike – to sigh (among other things)
