"Flowers of the Field"

"Flowers of the Field" a Yamato uta nature poem

"Flowers of the Field"

Spring time in Korea
walking down a forest path
with the love of my life

Enjoying the Flowering Trees
the Snowing Cherry blossoms
the tulips, the wild flowers
in the field

the fragrance of love
in the air
Life is great

I used a Yamato uta poem based on a fan story prompt:

Yamato uta is an unrhymed FREE VERSE of Japanese poetry. FORM: Free verse means there are no rules, the poem is not rhymed and it can be as long as you like. Poets created THE YAMATO UTA POEM during the Heian Period 700 century. As with all Japanese poetry, keeping it as brief as possible with word imagery is easy to visualize. Most are about nature, but you can use any subject you like.
