Ev’ning argument.
Sleepless night, anger unchecked.
Early morning frost.
(Probably not the sort of frost this prompt has in mind.)
Note: There’s still time to participate in my latest haiku and limerick prompt.[tags]Argument Haiku, Anger Haiku, Frost[/tags]

Sigh. I relate all too well to this one. No matter I recall it’s best not to go to sleep on one’s anger … Ah, well, frost does warm up readily, doesn’t it?
Happy New Year!
I like that one, the justaposition works well
This is wonderful. Happy New Year!
Thanks everyone. And happy new year!
brrrrrr. and not the good kind! a very successful ‘ku! A Laughing Gypsy
Laughing! Laughing! I remember something about frost like this…
funny, this is exactly where my mind went when i saw the prompt too: frosty attitude. nice haiku!
It is a deadly frost nevertheless!
Happy new year!
Nice twist on frost … the frosty emotions of an argument can be a sharp chill to the soul. Peace & happy new year wishes, JP/deb
i think this is why my momma always told me to never go to bed mad! a great take on the prompt :)
Thanks so much to all of you!
I really like the different take on frost. I have experienced this kind of frost myself and it is not nearly as interesting as the weather type of frost. ha ha

Thanks, Sandy. By the way, I really enjoyed your post about haiku writing!
Love the differerent idea of frost - how true!!
Great little haiku. Frost is frost no matter what kind. I am just learning to write Haiku so I am glad to read poets who seem to make it easy.
love-bd
I can relate. I’d respond to what a prompt evoked than to try to create what I think is expected.
