Wishing all my blogger buddies and readers a Happy and creative 2025.
I am emerging from the darkness of self-imposed isolation, promising to be more responsive in 2025. Thank you dear friends, for all the love and support.
This week, the challenge is given by an accomplished poet, Willow. She wants the poet to choose a piece of music and “write a syllabic poem about how the music either makes you feel or what it suggests to you.”
This iconic song, shot in 1960, still inspires the lovers to believe that love knows no fears. She is a commoner and loves the Prince but the king promises her freedom from imprisonment if she dances in his court. She grabs the opportunity to declare her love that is eternal, despite the consequences.
A string of dodoitsu has been inspired from this song. Thanks to Tanka Tuesday host.
A dodoitsu is a Japanese form of poetry that is sometimes performed as a folk song. It has 26 syllables: 7 in the first, second and third lines, and 5 in the last line. (7/7/7/5). No rhyming. No title.
Magical aura of love immerses two souls in a pool of divine joy that freezes time moments dare not stir.

it ushers spring into life it whispers songs of delight but adds embers of passion love is so sublime.

love is a cascading creek that flows with blithe abandon donning beams of ecstasy carves its own pathways.
