The Sijo Structure id like the tanka, renga and haiku . It has three lines of between 14-16 syllables each, giving a total of 44-46 syllables per sijo.There are three basic rules to keep in mind when writing a sijo:
1. The basic structure
2. A musical image or element
3. A twist.
My Example
The Escape
By Paul McCann
No one could ever see those gentle meadows in my mind ,
through lush fields of floating thoughts I'm sure one day I will find ,
an escape to the meadows from the constant daily grind .
