Gogyohka Poem
A chapter in the book 2024 Japanese Poetry
The Calm After The Storm
by Gypsy Blue Rose
For my best friend
the sun may hide behind thunderous storms but keep your faith— when in darkness look for the Light |
For my best friend and her husband who is facing health challenges.
"Beloved, I pray that all may go well with you and that you may be in good health, as it goes well with your soul" - 3 John 1:2
Gogyohka is a five-line Japanese poetic form with no strict rules on syllable count but as brief as possible. You may use any theme. Lines are grammatically connected. Alliteration, personification, and metaphor are okay. It usually doesn't rhyme, but natural not forced rhymes are okay. Japanese poets have written gogyohka since the 1910s. However, they did not name the form until 1983 by poet Enta Kusakabe.
