I've written my second haibun today; I was inspired by the harsh winds that make their presence known during the harsh winter months here in Bowling Green. I had to write this one while I was in the frame of mind to write; unfortunately that happened during my Poetry Workshop class! (Sorry Theresa!)
Haibun #2
Roaring wind blows through my hair. My cheeks turn red against its freezing bite. The cold makes my nose drip.

May I make suggestions? I would recommend getting rid of the repetition and reversing the order of the prose/haiku portion.

The reason is that I think your prose section has more imagery than the haiku. Something to think about! Good job on doing another haibun!
hmmm, I'm still a little bothered by the repetition of hair.
