Sunday afternoon
perfect time to give
thanks

Sunday afternoon
praying in His sanctuary
on a park bench

perfect time to give
preparing for a feast
with love

thanks
life, children, family,
friends and so much more

Reading saves the night (troiku) Daily moments Oc 2/17

Tic toc
The night crawls
Toss and turning

Tic toc
Checking the time
Only 3 :00 AM?!

The night crawls
Light on on my tablet
Catchup on friend’s blogs

Tossing and turning
Anchored in worry
Reading chased away

silence of the fans (troiku – tanka) Daily Moments September 28 2017

temperatures plummet
cool breeze whistles
bonne nuit

temperatures plummet
even the cicadas
nature sleeps

cool breeze whistles
softly
twilight serenade

bonne nuit
catching up
stories of the night

~~~

heatwave lifts
embracing
silence in the home
roar of monsters sleep
until summer

Daily moments – September 28 2017 silence of the fans

a looney or a tooney (troibun)

They passed by him one by one. The sun had just risen and many people shuffled South coming back from their night shift; they seemed to notice him and some would stop by and say hi, or offer him something; others were in their own world walking zombie like; they couldn’t wait to hit the pillow.

And then there was another crowd walking the other direction, very quickly going to their day job. Most of them did not notice him and some even smirked at him as if he were a nuisance.

After the weekend, the morning crowd was not always accommodating.

by the Métro door
sips the last of his coffee
folks rush by

by the Métro door
holds out his Tim Horton cup
longing heavy coins

sips the last of his coffee
the nurse in purple, brings him
every Monday

folks rush by
every hundredth person drops
a big fat toonie
