Surf undulating
Perpetually moving.
Never still. Constant.
Will it wash away
All of the worries and cares
Of the former day?
Form:Katuata. The Katuata originally consisted of a poem consisting of 19 sound units or onji, (in the west we would describe this as having a syllable count of 19). There was a break after the fifth and twelfth onji and this would give us a form structure of. 5 - 7 - 7. Later poets also wrote using only 17 onji and this gave a form structure of 5 - 7 - 5.
