Mikan, Japanese citrus

tatami stitch and 蜜柑,Mikan(japanese citrus)

街をゆき 子供の傍を 通るとき 蜜柑の香せり 冬がまた来る

passing by and behind

kids playing on street of town,

winter came again

realised it suddenly

by smell of Mikan.

This is my favorite winter tanka,短歌,Japanese middle length poem..

Mikan, Japanese citrus is eaten on winter, and the smell is like orange but not strong taste like those.Mikan is easy to make peel off. Mikan is not big like Orange. Size of Mikan is depend on mikan itself.

I used to get my nail of thumb yellow because i peeled many Mikans. lol

what make me feel winter is those, smell of stove, smell of MIkan, and Kotatsu are good combination for me to realise winter.

what thing make you feel winter?

thank you for reading my message ..
