winter haiku – the shutters clatter = nos volets cliquettent
our shutters clatter
my teeth chatter –
your ardent embrace
nos volets cliquettent
mes dents claquent –
ton étreinte ardente

There is a shutter such as this which is visible from our garden. It has all the crumbling plaster around it. A typical neglected Greek old house.
