Away from home (tanka) & A friend indeed (troiku)

Chèvrefeuille's Troiku from CarpeDiemHaikuKai, Daily moments, Haiku Horizons, Senryû, tanka, Troiku, Waka 1 Minute

Nature’s friend
Savouring fragrance and calm
On a blossom
An interlude
Away from the cacophony

Written for HaikuHorizons’ prompt: friend & load

 

With mute compassion
Listens to her unburden
Defines a friend

With mute compassion
In the name of the Father
Hears our confessions

Listens to her unburden
Embracing her in her arms
Whispering, “There, there.”

Defines a friend
intrinsically
Knows when she hurts

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
