The Stone to the Cloud: Sijo Poetry Composed in English

The Stone to the Cloud: Sijo Poetry Composed in English (Volume 1)

Rhythmic lines that still sing strong one thousand years in Korea, sijo brings deep expression of cares and woes in people's hearts. Discover this poetic form, sijo gently inspires thoughts. The dramatic rhythm, the paced three lines to express a wide range of poetic themes in a succinct manner keeps sijo very much alive in the hearts of Koreans to this day. However, the full effect of sijo's unique rhythm is often lost in English translations of Korean sijo classics, depriving non-Korean speaking lovers of poetry the rhythmic experience of understanding why it is so endearing. Using English as the primary language, Kim Goeng Pil has composed original poetry in English beginning with strictly adhering to the ideal traditional poetic form to ensure the unique rhythm and dramatic delivery in just a three line progression is expressed with the full spirit of sijo.
