time, that unrepentant thief
steals the roses from my cheeks
leaving wrinkles in their place
my only recourse is
to turn mirrors to the wall.

Premium Member Searching--A Gogyohka String

I searched
so hard
trying to find           
the me
in myself


on the edge
of darkness
I find                        
myself searching
enlightenment


she saw the light
within me 
when                         
I opened
the door

Premium Member Earth Prayer

Benevolent sky
Drench my arid body 
With abundant tears. 
Let emotions sprout anew…
Flowers will bloom in gratitude.

Nature Gogyohka

Crystal dew nestle on meadow,                      
     Snowy mist caress the peaks,                            
     Bright dapple of sunlight shift,                           
          As breeze stir the leaves,                                    
      Nature awakes anew with life.

[Gogyohka Poetry Form]

When relationships
Drop below freezing point
Frost causes a cold-war
A solution to be found
In the warmth of mediation

the magnetic allure
of a crescent moon
appeals to the isolation
of my soul from worldly ties
I relish the joy of gratitude

Gogyohka is a poetry form developed by Enta Kusakabe 
in Japan and translates literally to "five-line poem." 
It is an off-shoot of the tanka form. It has no syllable rules,
and does not usually rhyme. Preferably, each line would be 
a separate, usually short, phrase.
