Jack Horne Poet Sijo

Summer Love Sijo

I kiss my summer love goodbye - as winter’s surely here:
The autumn brought our  falling out and cooled the lusty heat
And now we stand as chilly as the ice that freezes both our hearts.

For Debbie’s Sijo contest

Robert Johnson June 27, 2014 at 7:54 AM How do we survive the winter And summer seems so short. In cold the love does splinter. In warmth, we woo and court.

John Lawless June 20, 2014 at 6:43 AM BRRR. Well done with this tricky little form. Not as easy as this write makes it look.
