Exceptional Choka 5/7 5/7 5/7 5/7/7 One Thousand Cranes : Living The Dream by Gypsy Blue Rose

Bright scarlet ibis,  swept up by silver moonlight,  onto wishful sky. Dueling creatures of the night,  sing sweet symphonies,  to lull maiden into dreaming, of faraway lands.  Where bright scarlet ibis fly,  among beautiful maidens.    Author Notes This week's event in the Japanese Poetry Club is to write a CHOKA. It's a form of Japanese court poetry of the 6th to 14th century consisting of (5-7 5-7 5-7- 5-7-7) syllables pattern. There are other variants of this pattern but I will keep it simple for this event. It was composed mainly to commemorate public events The total length of the poem is indefinite. Artwork by chie-yoshii Thank you very much. I appreciate that you took the time to read and review my poem. Gypsy hugs
