A poem that speaks to me of the danger of the Earths fate, reflected in the moon and it's regular routine.Your Poem engages the readers imagination.

Stunning imagery here and complimented with a beautiful natural filled scenes with perfectly chosen words. Excellent work. I have never seen that poetry form before 'IROHA POEM' I love seeing all these new styles its amazing there are so many! My favourite is the concluded lines 'shivering earthy sighs' thats wonderful.
Best Wishes

Comment from estory
There is definitely an oriental feel to the language and form in this one, in a wavering, mysterious imagery. And it captures a unique and different sense of nature; something of the inevitable, the fated, a product of mechanical movement through space and time. As the seasons roll by, and winter moves in, there is a kind of cold indifference about it. We have to deal with the hand we are dealt. There is no compassion in the cold rock of Earth. estory

Comment from Tim Margetts
What a charmingly simple poem.
From bonsai to art to poetry to gardens.
It always impresses me how the Japanese style of artistic endeavour can make less seem so much more.
Thank you for sharing

Comment from lyenochka
I like your Iroha poem with the pensive mood that it conveys. My favorite parts are the alliterative line "Barren trees with branches bare" and the personification of the moon "jostling wispy clouds" while the earth "simply sighs."

Comment from Debbie D'Arcy
Hi Sanku, I think you created a very atmospheric scene here, quite haunting and imaginatively capturing the chilly landscape in the visual. However, unless I'm mistaken (which I could well be) there are 8 syllables in line 2 and 3. Perhaps you could check? Thanks for sharing, Sanku. Take care Debbie

as well as contrast in line four.

Thank you very much .I took your suggestion and changed 'desolate' to 'barren'.I want to keep quietly because Iroha poems tries to include all the alphabets .So I changed 'wispy' to 'stray'..Thank you.
