Flying high, touching the hues, of daylight end, heavenly peace, Moving sand, writing with heart, and hang onto, see waves erase, Am I real, imagination, Picture perfect, my dream ? Summer love, a treasure trove, heat rises to, a newer high, Bubbly self, sojourns beside, ever I heave, a deeper sigh, Dream come true, A fascination, an illusion, factual ?

This Sijo has the feel of summer, the hustle and bustle of recreation and relationships, and beaches, and well ....and. I enjoyed the ride.

This is a treasure trove in itself, Upma. I notice the probing questions that seem to ask for reassurance...also as if asking us readers to participate in your write. Congrats on placing high on the winners' list. // paul

Thanks Paul ! Glad u construed exactly as I wrote, no write is complete without reader's valuable inputs //Upma//

Little help dear new friend [not a rhyming form] each syllabic grouping needs to mean something and all of them together must relate [Flying as]3 - has no meaning [high as touching]4 has no meaning- where are [Flying high]3 has meaning! [touching the hues]4 has meaning [of daylights end] 4 [ heavenly peace] 4 / this has no rhyme [Flying high touching the hues of daylights end heavenly peace] 15 syllables /

it's OK to do less syllables but each grouping must stand alone & together SHOW don't tell..Light & Love

Thanks Sara ! Is this one sijo string enough to qualify for the contest ?
Date: 6/4/2014 3:20:00 PM
I love the summery feeling this gives. I am not 100 percent sure, but maybe sijo string implies more than one!

I think the Sijo string is the one you tie on your finger to help remember the syllable count(s).
