Leaves fall
to make way
for winter coats
frozen
lakes then thaw
for spring to sail
summer
waits her turn
to step on stage

Nice poem,
Nice poem,
I feel it misses the element of surprise.
Good catch IRiz
yes it does miss the element of surprise which I was trying hard to achieve. I had thought of not giving it a title but just "Sunku" but didn't know if it would then be too abstract to understand where I was going ....any idea how it could have been achieved?...I have now changed the title too late though since so to say the cat is outta the bag :)
i shall be trying to post at least 1 Sunku per month to keep the form active...

I like the circular feel of
I like the circular feel of the poem. how one season leads into another, leads into another. with the playful transitions. an interesting poetry form, sunku. is it two syllables, three syllables, and then four syllables, in three stanzas?
Hi Greg
thanks for reading and your comment....you are absolutely right about lines per stanza ans sequence of syllabi...Sunku is a new form ...a brain child of our friend who is trying to get it accredited...other than the lines and syllable counts it is expected that there should be a between the lines message which the reader should perceive...in this case "only change is permanent"
when you have time read her workshop on Sunku and also aesthetics of Sunku...it would help you to understand more about this form and i believe you would like to have a go at it...
