Excellent Gogyohka Poem Suite 2024 Japanese Poetry : The Queen of the Rising Sun by Gypsy Blue Rose Japanese Mythology

bask in sunshine’s warmth lying on green pastures  sprinkled with cobalt blue flowers  where Ama reigns with love and care of all sacred life below the summer sky   Ama moves in mysterious ways with stars tangled in her hair wearing a gown of celestial lace don’t make her wait the Queen of the Rising Sun   Author Notes Amaterasu (Ama) is a Japanese goddess known by many titles: Goddess of the Rising Sun, Queen and ruler of the Universe, Queen of Heaven and Creation. She is the center of Japanese spiritual life. Ama’s primary role is to illuminate all things, but also nourishes all living creatures and marks the orderly movement of day into night. The sun represents order and purity, two of Shinto’s most important concepts. All things in creation are ordered, from Ama down to the denizens of hells. This order is reflected in Japanese society as well. 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. source = writers digest source=wikipedia Thank you for reading and reviewing my poem. Gypsy Pictures from my Pinterest account.
