Exceptional Gogyohka Poem 2023 Gypsy's Tanka : Everyday by Gypsy Blue Rose

everyday, widower eats his lunch at their favorite park bench    as autumn wind whispers her name — the extra sandwich for the birds —         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 okay but never rhyme. 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.
