Inspired by Ese’s haiku at CDHK
inevitable
the dance of a falling leaf
with a snowflake

***************

first snowfall
finally
sorrows veiled

first snowfall
leaves,
grief to rest

finally
lifts weight of shadows
balance restored

veiled sorrows
giddiness of snowflakes
pretence of joy

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

    1. Thanks so much, Melinda. I’m pleased you enjoyed it. That photo was taken exactly one month and a day go on our first snow…it accumulated more the next day but I like the show of leaves and snow there.

      3. It was 4C here today and I thought that was cold enough … -4C just makes me freeze up! Yes though you’re right – ça commence.

      7. I bet it wasn’t! It was down to 0 this morning. I think if it keeps up and we start getting humidity, we’ll be having ice patches here in a bit .. and maybe snow as well.
