Gogyohka Poem
2024 Japanese Poetry
: Mother-Hips by Gypsy Blue Rose

 

 

 mother-hips are made 

to carry little bundles of love  

while making dinner,

buying groceries at the store,

or walking at the shore … and more

 

dads have big shoulders

to carry toddlers here and there

they are great

but not as much fun

as mother-hips 

 

 
 
 
 
 

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 fine. 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.
