Rob Carmack Poet Questionku

Songs of a Setting Sun

dusk’s curtain ends
a bird’s melody
what of your legacy

tick tock amends
near the sum of days
are you still in old ways

for what transcends
your last setting sun
have you left it undone

John Michaels May 6, 2017 at 3:24 AM Lovely imagery and a clever write. I like how each individual 'ku stands alone but together form a cohesive whole. Regards, John.

Hija De La Luna November 11, 2015 at 9:14 AM Great to have read this today. Got me some thinking to do. I'd say they are the most important questions. And I think I'd try this form.

Susan Gentry November 10, 2015 at 8:27 PM I had to study Questionku, a new one for me. Excellent 4, 5, 6 with last line question! Also excellent flow of thoughts to end any day. Love it! ~ Susan

Nicholas Henderson November 10, 2015 at 7:41 PM Well done. It is difficult to create a thurough introduction in 3 lines, but you did it. Then following it up with deep inquiries. Breat job being able to say so much in such a limitted format. Great Job!!
