summer’s promise (haiku)

Tournesol dans un jardin 1 Minute

knee deep in weeds
longs for lingering days
summer’s promise

summer’s promise
languid limbs on private beach
enchanted sighs

or as our host, Chèvrefeuille, has suggested a Tanka

knee deep in weeds
longs for lingering days
summer’s promise
languid limbs on private beach
enchanted sighs

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

  3. Nice set of haiku Cheryl Lynn. It can be re-formed to a tanka too:

    knee deep in weeds
    longs for lingering days
    summer’s promise
    languid limbs on private beach
    enchanted sighs
