hands her a daisy,
blushing, she thanks him,
Oh those courting days!

hands her a daisy,
heart fills with hope
their first kiss…

blushing, she thanks him
roaming the field – leans closer,
her hand feels so soft

Oh those courting days!
arm slides round her tiny waist
head on his shoulder

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

      2. Those are the stories that led me to start my other blog at Traces. So I have that experience to thank for finding my true love…writing.

  4. Gene is on a road trip by himself with my sisters and I gather to celebrate the oldest sister’s 80th birthday. Gene will be all mushy when he gets back home.

    old folks courting
    walking down a familiar lane
    very slowly

    1. Beautitiful, Janice. Reading this I see the image in the middle of the cobblestone street in Old Montréal, Gene’s arms wrapped around you:) Did you get all the photos I took?

    1. Yeah, that song was out when I was too young to date yet but I found that era was more romantic…still love to listen to those tunes. Patty Page sings it as well …I used to lipsing her songs:)
