Pandita Sietesantos Poet Sijo

Forever Young

Forever Young

In the fading light of day, when verdant fields turn to gray,
Even the old weary-eyed wrinkled moon looks lost without its glow.
But in my eyes, you are ever young sparkling like a diamond.

I'm going to try one ( maybe ) Pandita Sietesantos February 8, 2015 at 2:31 PM Hi Michael, thank you for visiting and leaving me your superlative compliments. Do try writing the "Sijo" form.

Warmest regards. Pandita.
