Sounds of Silence (solo no renga)

early bird
stirring in her pre-dawn dreams
chirps by her window

stretching to bring to life
steady roar takes over

tweets carry on
white noise overlaps
rising with the sun

Daily Moments in the wee hours of the night

Published by Tournesol

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 Namaste! View all posts by Tournesol

The chirping in better than a siren.

Merci beacoup Cheryl for the lovely morning thoughts and the images woven by your words. I would have loved to continue in French but limited by my smattering of the language. Ciao..

I enjoyed your poem too. And it was interesting to see a form I haven’t seen before.

  thanks! usually a renga is when one person writes the haiku and another person writes the renga (the two lines) I have not done that lately. One poet and I would go back and forth several stanzas. Sometimes instead of commenting on a haiku, I may respond with a renga if I am inspired.
