My response to Carpe Diem Weekend-Meditation #12 Christmas Troiku 

In a new weekend meditation, Chèvrefeuille challenges us to create Troiku. He has given us a few haiku to use for the Troiku: a classical haiku, a haiku by Jane Reichhold and one of his own, with the theme of Christmas (wintertime) and says we may use them all or just one or two. I chose the classical haiku by Basho.
