Arrange, Organize
Putting your wood in bundles for winter is the correct way to arrange it. You want to make sure you organize all of your wood before winter comes, or the loose logs could get blown away in the first winter storm.
Picture all of the bundles, neatly arranged and organized, as the first snowflakes begin to fall.

Right after you've finished arranging the bundles, you take out your saber (せい) and do one final slice. All of the bundles are now perfectly organized AND cut.
You can't just throw an entire bundle of logs onto a fire, you have to saber them into smaller chunks. And it's easier to arrange them first, saber them all in half, and then you have two nicely arranged rows!
