That would be cold, very cold. Thanks for sharing this one and for dropping by my page. I don't see how people survive the cold, cold of some areas of the USA or of other countries. Thanks for sharing and for dropping by my page. Sara

The photo reminds me of myself in the Noth part of Canada in minus 40 Celcius, my dearest Anne-Lise. Amazing Haiku. So true. Blessed.
