I grew a little tired after drinking with a friend I met for the first time in years.　However, I was so happy, happy about getting an e-mail from her after a long interval, actually meeting with her after so long, and above all, about her remembering me for all these years.

Clock in a drinking place/

Somehow tends to gain time/

New Year ornament/　(The season of this haiku is “New Year”.)

久しぶりに逢った友人とお酒を呑んだら、ちょっと疲れがでてしまいました。でも、とても嬉しかったです。久しぶりにメールをもらったこと、逢えたこと。何よりも、覚えていてもらったこと。

（俳句はお正月のものですが）
