Jisei poem for the haiku club
A chapter in the book 2024 Japanese Poetry
Steps to the Past
by Gypsy Blue Rose
steps to the past
where we had our last walk— sitting by creek of tears
where gurgling water sings a requiem chant  |
requiem = is a solemn chant for the dead

JISEI HAIKU (death poem) is a genre of Japanese poetry that offers a reflection on death coupled with a meaningful observation on life. It originated in Zen Buddhism The poem's structure can be written in haiku form 5/7/5 syllables OR LESS, or tanka form 5/7/5/7/7 syllables OR LESS. Death poems are typically graceful, natural, and emotionally neutral. Death is described as the imminent death of the poet OR metaphorically references such as sunsets, twilight, autumn, barren fields, falling leaves, bared trees, etc ... to suggest the transience of life.
