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.

That’s lovely – the last line is particularly evocative.

Thank you so much…I think I changed it a few times. I wrote the first part last night and NEVER saved it, so I started over with the idea at my break at work.

Sometimes the best haiku come like that – there’s some work behind the scenes, then later on, a haiku emerges relatively easily.

The operative word here is “relatively” [chuckles!]

Thanks so much, Hamish. I originally wrote the haiku with the last line including the performance of the stars but I had not saved it at work and recreated it, first as a tanka , then 2 haiku. I am satisfied with the first one as well.
