Sitting on the balcony at 3 am praying for a soft breeze. Leaves are still, hardly a waver until a sudden breeze makes one believe there is more to come. Times like this, makes more sense to set up a cot and sleep under the elm. It’s a special time, this week for her. Summer solstice falls close to her mother’s birthday, June 22nd. It is as if the moon is glowing in celebration of a blessed soul.

canicule en juin
rien de mieux pour apaiser
une nuit blanche
éclat d’une lune quasi pleine
solstice d’été

June heatwave
nothing better to pacify
sleepless night
glow of a moon almost full
summer solstice

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
