special day (fibonacci and naani)

Tournesol Daily moments 2017-11-052017-11-05 1 Minute

joy
felt
seeping
through my pores
kinfolk stopover
unexpected precious embrace
my lips are smiling as I Iisten to my heart sing

tap
tap
tapping
my feet to the tunes
rising my soul to paradise
such miracles can only come from the universe.

vision of grace
red leaves on branches
poised
enduring hope

grey skies return
housekeeping never done
closing season
winter’s duvet awaits

Micropoetry Month – November 5th, 2017 – Daily moments

We are asked to write a Fibonacci with as many lines as we wish following the Fibonacci sequence. I tried to keep it short (0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13) and closed with two naani poems.

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 View all posts by Tournesol

  Thanks, Janice. I would not find it a poem if I continued passed 13 syllables however, it would feel more like a narrative but it is interesting. The naani is a form, however, I want to learn more about, read more and master better since it is somewhat like a tanka but less complicated. And since it is a popular Indian poetry form, all the more reason to use it when I reflect on Amma 🙂
