Forever possess. (Siju)

by Steven Beesley   Jul 31, 2005


I have for you a question - How do you keep my love so captive?
As the years they go by, my love for you will not grow old.
I shall follow my heart, you shall forever possess my soul.

Siju:
Much older then Haiku and Tanka forms, it is of Korean origin evolving from even earlier Chinese patterns.

3 lines comprising 14-16 syllables each, totaling between 44-46 syllables. A pause brakes each line approximately in the middle.
