Very touching!

smoldering heat
the bare-footed Jain monks
hardly touch the ground
The Jains monks are often seen walking at all hours - through heat and cold and rain, they have a piece of cloth over their mouth -so as to not swallow any living things inadvertently, and to this day they follow this strict discipline

So nice!!
I could understand three language haiku including German.
Thank you Gabi san for nice haiku that I like, [ashi akaku }
sakuo.
That's really nice, Gabi.
Conjures up images of Santoka for me.
Reading the Japanese, I see there's some wordplay (or at the very least, phonetic harmony) between hatsuyuki and takuhatsu.

Wow Gabi san!
Many layers of meaning in this one. The poem both amuses me, and makes me concerned for those who go without in the winter. Hmm... I wonder why this image could seem funny... maybe I have a warped sense of humor.
Thanks for this treat.
