End of the winter day -
A line of singing people
Moves through the wood.

林間を歌い行く列暮早し

Superb photo accompanying an evocative haiku.
The compactness of the translation is fabulous.

The “line of singing people” generates a kind of warmth within the cold evoked by the first and last lines and photo– delicious!
