where cicadas sing,
the wind stands still in reverence
of the demure moon
as passing clouds cover her
with magical dust
full of illusion and dreams

Author Notes
Reverence [ rev-er-uhns or rev-ruhns ] deep respect, awe, veneration
Demure (de-mur-er). characterized by shyness and modesty
Illusion (ih-loo-zhuhn) something that deceives by producing a false or misleading impression of reality.
JIYU-SHI (means free verse) is Japanese freestyle poetry introduced to American poetry between 1912 to 1926. The only rule is to write in 5/7 stanzas, you can write as many stanzas as you like. I recommend keeping complete thoughts in each line and connecting the lines grammatically for excellent flow. click here to read more
Thank you very much for taking the time to read and review my poem. Gypsy hugs :)
