Excellent Gogyohka Poem 2023 Gypsy's Tanka : Muse Amidst Butterflies by Gypsy Blue Rose

my muse wades in the lake amidst fluttering wings as her bare skin sparkles in the sun     like a million diamonds— butterflies in my stomach           Author Notes Gogyohka is a five-line free-style Japanese poetic form with no strict rules on syllable count but as brief as possible. Any theme. Lines are grammatically connected. Alliteration, personification, and metaphor are okay but never rhyme. Japanese poets have written gogyohka since the 1910s. However, they did not name the form until 1983 by poet Enta Kusakabe. === source = writers digest ===source=wikipedia Thank you for taking the time to read and review my poem.
