Donna,

Being haiku novices we are obviously under the gun. Lee said to me:

Most effective haiku are made up of two parts that interact imaginatively. It is more difficult to get the same kind of interaction with three parts--a three part haiku often feels disjointed and is harder for the reader to "put together."

This is the pitfall that I see here:

Christmas morning feed
icicles in the horses tails
little bells jingling

But I've been wrong before.

Although I suppose L2 & L3 could be considered linked.
