Mesmerising Monsoon - #MonsoonDiaries

Monsoon has started in full swing in most of the parts of country, and so is our theme for upcoming marathon on Write Tribe Festival of Words is MONSOON. Let's see what each alphabet of Monsoon brings along with it. Each day one alphabet is described in different form of poetry.



Day #1  of WTFOW#5- M of Monsoon and Sedoka poetry (6 line Japanese poetry, each stanza of 5-7-7 syllable count) 


Everything fresh around
Nature is scintillating
Sense power of purity

Flowing in deep thoughts
Be absorbant in 'monsoon'
Drench yourself in joyousness

  2. Wow that was quite some verse. I'd never heard of this style of poetry before -like most people I associated Japanese poetry with Haiku. Thanks for introducing me to another form of poetry.
