Gogyohka Poem Suite
A chapter in the book 2024 Japanese Poetry
Tangerine Break of Dawn
by Gypsy Blue Rose
I see you wake up at the break of dawn as tangerine shades cover your face with a gentle touch
I lie close to you embraced in your scent of ocean breeze and sandalwood with mist of dripping dew
a string of wild horses gallop on the meadow and a charm of finches chirp and chatter on the bough
I kiss you and smile entangled in memories of our loving throughout the night too tired to get up
|
a 'string of wild horses' and a 'charm of finches' are the collective names
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.
