And we have proper snow that's settled here in Kiev and everything is beautiful and white and wintry! I'm told it'll warm up and melt by the weekend, but I'm taking this to mean that next week I'll get fresh snow, and no hidden icy patches :)

Riches
Richard, Dick, Dickie --
Twenty-four men with one name.
Too many Riches.

Ninety-nine problems,
From calling women "bitches"...
Life's full of riches :(

[I'm assuming that emoticons are unpronouncable and therefore don't count as any syllables, but I had no other way to convey the sarcasm in the last line.]

Greg - that's a nice way to think of it! I hope you get the snow you long for :)

Hah, love the take on the prompt in your first haiku. Never even occurred to me that it could go that way :D
