Yellow Day Lily

Yellow day lily's bloom Tightly pinched the blossom Against the morning's cold Last bud of summer Soon 'oar's frost will close

You are enjoying these Gogyoka poems my friend! I know you like the Tanka-ish look without the syllable requirements! I enjoy the challenge of the syllable requirements myself, makes for an interesting write, but the Gogyoka form is very free! This is a fantastic write Sara, I really enjoyed reading it this afternoon! Quite the special and enlightening poem, Great Work!!
