Haven’t heard this song in ages …. ah …The Bangles! 😀
A great response!!!! Placing “winter” alone, at the end … the emphasis is very powerful .
Some great lines in this song – I almost went with the S & G version, but… this does rock 🙂

Thanks, Jen!
Too bad we can’t stockpile those unused syllables for future haiku, eh? 😀
Very welcome 🙂
