twilight’s symphony (troiku)

Haiku, Haiku Horizons, Troiku, Video 1 Minute

blistering heat
cicadas together in concert
summer music

blistering heat
welcomes nightfall – and,
disrobing

cicadas together in concert
swamped by deep throated moos
a bullfrog’s call

summer music
sudden breeze moves wind chimes
shivers down her spine

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. Well now, we do have these critters merely 4 months in the year and scorching heat about 2 if we’re lucky. I think our winters are so long that when it gets hot we don’t appreciate it as it’s such a shock to our bodies. My trip to the Caribbean a few years back, taught me to do everything slower…That means leaving for work 30 mins earlier to walk slow and take time to actually smell the roses along the way.
