It's always nice to have a friend like this <3 Great haiku, Caitlin <3
Beautiful
Cozy and lovely, just like you!
This is such a sweet and hopeful moment, and I love how you captured that shift from coldness to warmth through a simple connection.
Smiles so powerful, they melt the most icy hearts.
Nicely done, Caitlin! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Beautiful work! So heartwarming Caitlin! Happy Happy 2026 my friend!🫶🏾🥳
Heat as metaphor! Great take on the challenge, Caitlin!
This little poem perfectly captures how one soft warm look can spark your inner fire 💛 Love it Caitlin 💛
So true! I have a resting bitch face but when someone smiles at me, my heart melts and I immediately smile hehehe
Great haiku, Caitlin!
Wow. You packed a universe into seventeen syllables.
Love that initial coldness. Far too familiar with that but the turn is also relatable. With the warm look of a friend or someone close. Well done lassie
