The bus stop light flickers once
Enough to thaw time

Congratulations! Love the last line.
Such a cool haiku. I'm always impressed by good ones. It's easy to write a haiku, but difficult to write a good one. You certainly did that here. Great imagery and feeling. Congratulations on your win.
This feels dreamy, like magick, Suede. One of my favorite entries, for sure. Congratulations on your win!💙👏😊
