A haiku written in alliteration?
Of course, my goal here is to have fun and brighten your day with "h-alliteration."
What is alliteration?
Alliteration is the repetition of the same consonant sound at the beginning of words in close proximity to each other (e.g., “whispering winds,” “busy bee”). Alliteration gives a rhythmic and almost musical quality to words that makes them more engaging, memorable, and impactful.

"Alliteration is alarmingly addictive." --- Tamara Ireland Stone
During January, I continued to give away "paint chip haiku cards" to women who I met in my day-to-day life.
Find out more about my project here:
I challenged myself to capture the essence of winter in a haiku using alliteration.
And when women received this "h-alliteration," many read it aloud and we had a good laugh about it.
Whenever I give a lady one of these cards, I first ask, "what is your favorite color?"
And here are the number of times each color was chosen in January:
Blue 32 🏆
Pink 26
Green 13
Purple 12
Red 9
Yellow 5
Orange 4
Grey 2
Neutral 2
TOTAL = 105
