In Japan, we have special gift season in Summer and Winter.
Summer gift is called "Ochugen", and Winter one is called "Oseibo".
They are very big sales for department stores.
We send the "Oseibo" to our parents, or brothers or familiar person,
to say thank you for them .
I chose some delicious foods as "Oseibo" every year.
When I choose this winter gift,
I suddenly understand
how I love you and houw you love me

Hello Mukusuke,
返信削除I really love this blog.
You've only been writing it for a short time, but I've already learnt a lot from it about Japan and about haiku. Thank you.
And today's poem is absolutely lovely, very touching. Thank you again.
Marcus
