Gogyohka Poem for the Japanese Poetry Club

A chapter in the book 2024 Japanese Poetry

Bewitched

by Gypsy Blue Rose

 

bewitched by an opened rose

memories of last night remain

in my body and soul —

lain beneath you

embraced by your piercing musk scent

 

 

 




In the Japanese Poetry Club, we are learning to write Gogyohka poems. Everybody is welcome. click here if you want to check out the club

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.
