Beyond Compare

good morning the entry below is a "goshi" format before anyone makes a comment on the format for all of us who have posted on various sites know each site has their own definition guideline and rule it should be universal but we all know it isn't it escapes me from which site I found the format more than one stanza would make it a goshi suite just as a tanka suite or haiku and senyru suite I would further like to say I'm certain we have all joined in on the format challenges writing an entry from a to z with every format the two hardest for me will always be the chant royal and sonnet for those of you who continuously write in the formats blessings to you and you have my truest respect and admiration thank you with all this being said here is my "goshi" format one stanza with rhyming optional and with no rule of meter or unmeter I listed my entry under light verse poetry "beyond compare" have I told you the worth of your open arms have I showed you my love and the all of it not because of your smile or sparkling eyes and not because we express dress to undress with illumination you move me beyond compare SkyWatcher 03-07-23

I can’t do the lot of them. Very few I can do. But I’m learning each day though. And would love to learn from you amazing poets here. Lisa, thank you for welcoming me, it means a lot to me. :)

Hello, Lisa! There are far more forms than the 60 listed at the soup, as you say. I find forms I like that are unlisted. You did a great job with the goshi! Very warm, sensual and affectionate. Hugs, Panagiota x o

Wanted to add,,,,thank you for replying in complete …sentences, you deserve a trophy for your replies that flow with thought and emotion! I know that takes time. But you know what? People are worth it I know you agree with that they don’t need to be brushed off like flies or I a too busy for them. Rude, rude! Non replies are the worst .Panagiota xo
