first snow

Issa 一茶

初雪や雪駄ならして善光寺

hatu yuki ya setsuta narasite zenko-ji

 

sakuo’s English

first snowfall---

stomping setsuta sandal

at Zenko Temple

 

setsuta http://www.wasoh.com/setta/index.html

was a snobby sandal for playboy in Edo era.

It is not good for walking on snowy road. As to my imagination, Issa would

spent a night near the Temple and tomorrow morning he went to Zenko Temple with pleasant feeling. 

 

Chin’s haiga

Chin san is Taiwanese who is 80 years over, graduated from old Japanese Empire university in Taipei. He is Sakuo’s and Issa’s good friend.
