: I want You to Know ... by Gypsy Blue Rose

I want you to know

                        that I love you

                        unconditionally

the way the moon loves the night

      and the sun loves a warm day

the way crimson and amber leaves

      love to dance with a crisp autumn breeze

nature takes me to your door

      on the wings of the Morning Star

I follow your cabin's cedar scent

      and the earthy smell from your fire pit

I will do anything for you 

      all you have to do is ask

I want you to know 

                           that I love you 

                           unconditionally

 
 

Author Notes
RYOKAN POEM
Taigu Ryokan was born in northern Japan in 1785. He was a successful haiku poet. When he was eighteen years old Ryokan met the Zen Master Kokusen and became a Buddhist monk. He wrote about nature and the way people relate to each other using the five senses: touch, hearing, sight, smell, and taste. The rules are free verse, any amount of syllables and lines. Doesn't rhyme. You may use any poetic device.

thank you very much for taking the time to review my poem
