In the middle of the storm
\nthe red umbrella keeps the snow away from her face.<\/p>\n

She is Eizan\u2019s ukiyo-e lady
\nsentenced to stand in the harbor forever.<\/p>\n

Hair pulled back, waist tied by an obi,
\nshe turns her back to the sea.<\/p>\n

This winter morning how I want to look like her,
\nthe elegant stance, the perfect neck.<\/p>\n

Hear the wind fondle the black and gold kimono
\nas I stand barefoot in the snow.<\/p>\n
