Gogyohka Poem
A chapter in the book Tanka Collection
Tasting the Summer Sun
by Gypsy Blue Rose
waiting for the cool night, I lie on fields of gold— with a dry straw stem in my salivating mouth tasting the summer sun
|
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.
