Wintertime (Fibonacci – Naani – Troiku)

Tournesol CARPE DIEM HAIKU KAI, Chèvrefeuille's Troiku from CarpeDiemHaikuKai, Daily moments, Fibonacci, naani, Photography, Troiku, Waka 2017-12-112017-12-11 1 Minute

( Fibonacci )
white
snow
brightens
our winters
despite shorter days
enjoying snow melt on my tongue
as I stare agape at the snow clouds in the sky

life
is
so brief
transcending
and temporary
like a snowflake melts on my cheek
and vapours on morning seas vanish effortlessly

( naani )

snow on my balcony
I rest in the warmth of my abode
wishing I were a child again, rolling in the snow
making snow angels as I stare up in the heavens

(troiku)

snow falls
brightening death
of winter

snowfalls
dressing trees
with white angels

brightening death
adorning mother’s place
snow covered tombstone

of winter
slumber takes over
melancholy hearts

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

Fabulous Fibonacci, Cheryl, I especially like the second one with the melting snowflake. I like the shift in the naani to the warmth of home – and then the terrific troiku – I associate winter with my mum’s death – it will be a year on 9th January..

    The good thing about next year is that once Mum’s anniversary is over, I have the birth of my daughter’s first child to look forward to at the beginning of March. I’m just sorry Mum missed that.

    I can see how that might help with a grandchild. My daughter announced she was having a baby 2 days before my father passed. That would be 14 years January 3rd. Both my parents seemed to not want to go through another winter.

  Thank you, I noticed the shape with that Christmas tree feel. I wonder if Kristjaan thought of that when he posted the prompt.

Wow what an incredible beautiful post Cheryl Lynn. I love the fir-tree shape, but I hadn’t thought about that. I like it and your Fibo-ku’s are really awesome. I am so glad to see how you have picked up this new creative haiku-like form.

  It’s certainly a tricky form; I am trying to write more Nani as well and of course your Troiku 🙂
