Haiku about Winter (23)

なまはげの初恋の地や男鹿半島

namahage no hatsukoi no chi ya ogahanto

Namahage ogre

falls in first love ―

the Oga Peninsula

なまはげの炎の如き思ひかな

namahage no honoo no gotoki omoi kana

Namahage ogre

falls in love ―

like a flame

Manisha Kundu-Nagata tells us about Namahage Festival in her blog.
