#2: "The cold!"

This is a winter haiku by the poet Kyorai who lived from 1651 to 1704. I don't know for sure, but I think the translation may be by R.H. Blythe.

For others taking part in the December photo challenge whose theme this month is winter or Christmas themed photos using song titles, poems, or movies, please see: http://form.pbase.com/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=48611
