Contemporary Sijo

A chapter in the book 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
