Contemporary Sijo
2024 Japanese Poetry
: Wind and Waves by Gypsy Blue Rose

 
 

wind shakes young and tender leaflets 

and blow crisp amber and crimson leaves 

     that wave goodbye to migrant singing birds

 

coquette tides dance back and forth   

as waves with white foam skirts

tip toe around the shore
