Haiku for those slow, forceful giants

Slow rivers of ice,

Carving paths through our landscape,

Rolling veins - Earth's blood.

A/N: This little haiku was something I wrote a few weeks ago during my online writing club stream on Twitch. The prompt was 'water', so I picked out as many natural sources of water as i could think of and wrote different forms of poems for each. There was something ironic in choosing one of the shortest forms of poetry for such a large subject.

I have chipped away at my backlog of Vocal reads this month and I have reclaimed about 2 weeks. If you see me commenting on your work that is 2 weeks old, and ignoring your new publications, don't panic! I am getting to them and savouring every single second along the way!
