Tournesol is still tilling the soil dans un jardin; slowly planting a seed here and there, hoping to see poetry blossom...a labour of love. This blog will host short form poetry such as Haiku, Tanka, Tilus, Lanturne, Shadorma, Senryû...

Ramblings on life (haiga)
© Tournesol '14 |
(haiku)
hot muggy day
spider finds a cool safe place
took a bubble bath
August sailing
gusty winds tense the jib
crow kissed a windshield
fly fidgets
buzzes around his arm.
SWAT!
spider spins
all night long diligently
Eureka!
children's park
swings, teeter totters, slides
barbarian invasion
children giggling
bright coloured kites catch
the sun
string floats silently
(free
verse)
If I were an insect,
who knows how my life would end?
if I were a bird,
if I were a bird,
who knows how the wind would blow?
if I were a child living in the wrong part of the world,
who knows when my life would end?
life is a gift for some,
a puzzle for so many,
an affliction for too many...

however life lends
may be a mystery
black and white blends
interesting and dreary
I can always count
on rivers to flow,
the sun to glow
sunsets sublime
and
the moon to shine.
