Comment from Shelley Dawson
I feel this deep within my soul. The yearning for freedom. The view of the stars and planets from a dark isolated place. The wonder of seeing the universe and clearing your mind of all worries and fears. Thanks for sharing this.

Very profound, your piece moved me. Any poem that can do that gets a thumbs up. I live in a city apartment so I relate. Your poem has universal appeal and your picture compliments your words. Good luck in the contest.

Comment from Mary Vigasin
A very meaningful and powerful poem. Living in the city, one misses seeing the beauty of a star-filled sky. Seeing the stars in open country problems then seem so minute.
Thank you for letting me remember the times in the country I witnessed this wonder.
Best wishes,
Mary

Comment from Mark Schardine
Day-to-day drudgery can discourage us to the point where we have such a dulled understanding of the world that even if we can leave for moment, we cannot gain any advantage or benefit.

Comment from tempeste
Ciao!
Your poem described well the discomforts of living in the city( concrete jungle).
Our ancestors dwelled in forest in close contact with Mother Nature.
Taking a trip to the countryside helps reduce stress... city life is chaotic and can cause serious health issue.
To breath fresh air , listen to a creak gurgling , enjoy birds sing is food for the mind, body and soul.
I live near woods and I love taking a walk .. I leave all my woes behind. It's very energising.
PS: The first poem you posted was lovely too about the warrior .. great art choice.

Comment from Mrs. KT
Very moving, Gypsy! Powerful and sad at the same time...
Thank you for introducing this Japanese form to me and other members of FanStory.
When I attempted mine, I found I appreciated the extra syllable count allowed and the implementation of phrases. Very natural and not constrained.
Best Wishes!

Comment from Mike Stevens
Another fine poem, Gypsy--I learn something new on here everyday--I wasn't even aware of the gondola-style of poetry, but then I ain't too bright; never mind!

A very nice entry. I am always impressed with your presentation. The poem has a very traditional feel. I also like the fact it is in several verses.
Good luck in the contest.
