A little bit about moi:
I am a mom, a nana, a sister, a woman, a friend, a human being…a youth counsellor, Family Life Educator.
I have been working in the helping profession for over 25 years and volunteered in various capacities from youths to seniors.
Tournesol is my nom de plume for haiku and other Japanese form poetry here at Tournesoldansunjardin https://cheryllynnroberts.wordpress.com I hope you enjoy reading through my daily waka.
I also have another blog "Stop the Stigma" where I may stand on my soapbox now and then and hope it will become a place to drop in and share or comment on issues important to you. In that vein this could be a great way to learn from each other.

WOW what a gorgeous haiku, sounds in French a lot nicer by the way, but I enjoyed of course the English version too … thank you for sharing on CDHK.

The French version was the original perhaps that`s why. I like to practise with haiku in French too although it is not my mother tongue. Thanks so much for your kind words. With a name like Chèvrefeuille, I would think you do understand French, right? even if it is a pseudonym…

I do understand French … but it also isn’t my mother tongue. I am from the Netherlands, les Pays Bas

Les Pays Bas is the name of an old Quebecois story. I have an idea for a Tanka for “kissing” …the haiku seems to just leave us hanging…would that be okay?

Yes of course …

I made a mistake…c’est Les Pays d’en Haut meaning the Northern part of Quebec
