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

Daily Moments Jan 26 2016 – mother’s love (troiku)

snowflakes
tender bits
heaven’s grace

snowflakes
taste of winter
on my tongue

tender bits
silken petals
of cherry blossoms

heaven’s grace
showering her love,
mother nature

    Such heartfelt sincerity. I really enjoy the way you experiment with different forms. I still remember your troiku with haibun, a first in my opinion. Well done, very.

      I always hesitate to call it a haibun (smiles) but I start with the haiku and my muse won’t stop nagging me to add more.

      they do look like blessings from above. I suppose snowflakes also do look like petals, eh?
