Satisfaction -CarpeDiem Haiku #486

CARPE DIEM HAIKU KAI, haiga, Photography 1 Minute

Lazy sunny day

sunbathing by the river

drinking lemonade.

* 

paddle boats sculling

kids wading in the river

splashing, gurgling.

* 

bullfrogs, motor boats

transistor radios

echoes of laughter.

* 

scorching summer night

sitting on the balcony

hear the crickets sing.

* 

sitting on the balcony

untying her kimono

gentle breeze caress

*

summers may promise

moments of delight and bliss,

desires quenched.

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. http://stigmahursteveryone.wordpress.com
