Elvish seasons (mega haiku!)

Ths was inspired by the Autumn 2005
haiku challenge of Thranduil Lovers Anon
(http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Thranduilloversanon)
***
Season of Stirring
Elves peek out of their cave homes
Limbs stretching anew
Spring-time in Mirkwood
Snow is merrily melting
First hunt of the year
Late Mirkwood summer
Swallows circling the blue sky
Kisses in the grass
Autumn in Mirkwood
Wine and dancing in caverns
The Elvenking smiles
Season of Fading
Dead leaves falling from branches
Wet skin in torchlight
Mirkwood in winter
Beech-trees heavy with snowflakes
Mulled wine in the hall
