Haiku
The haiku is a japanese poetry form, evolved from the renga during the 16th century. It is a three line, unrhymed set of seventeed syllables (5-7-5).
It is typically a pair of contrasting concrete/sensory images, with each image so dependant on the other that the whole thing collapses if one word is altered.
this is neither good nor a haiku. maple syrup on sugar on a pile of trite pancakes.

maybe liquid concrete. I suggest boning up on the classifications of poetry. this, and the other, are freeform.

ending in "at" adds an urban/hilbilly feel to this that ia am guessing you didn't intend. perhaps another adjective such as "warm" or "wool" or somehting...before the word "gloves"

you have a sense for words, try a different topic. Not all poetry is love and flowers. push yourself. this is also not haiku.
