Gogyohka Poem Suite
2024 Japanese Poetry
: * I Still Remember * by Gypsy Blue Rose

I still remember

as if it was yesterday,

your auburn hair spread

like a crown

over golden sand

the only witnesses

of your magestic beauty 

the bending reeds and me

bowing with complete

surrender at your feet

you lying on the beach

like the goddess of summer

I feel the urge to kiss you

and the waves agree with me

flowing in and out with the tides

     

 
 

Author Notes
fiction, I am experimenting with writing from a man's point of view

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.
