Across the Universe

For Rules, Please Read My Author Notes

~ Across the Universe ~


she doesn't know I exist
though my heart beats like drums
when she passes by

my Queen of the Universe

the moon and sun
are jealous of her radiant glow
and ardent rays

illuminating her stellar path

she doesn't need
extravagant perfumes
in crystal spray-bottles

her intoxicating scent

of rose and jasmine
follows where she goes
with her royal crown of flowers

 






Ardent = glowing like fire; burning, fiery, or hot:

SENRYU is a Japanese poem with a title that deepens its meaning. Senryu is similar to Haiku but It's about human nature and it doesn't include a season word (kigo). It's written in three lines with 17 syllables or less. These poems use a pause usually marked by a dash before the satori (an insightful twist to ponder). Alliteration and metaphor are okay. Never rhymes. the em-dash ( -- ) is used to emphasize an interruption in speech before the satori.

Thank you very much for taking the time to read and review my poem.
