The following information is about Sijo.
Sijo Defined
A short Korean poetic form consisting of three lines, each line having a total of fourteen to sixteen syllables in four groups ranging from two to seven (but usually three or four) syllables, with a natural pause at the end of the second group and a major pause after the fourth group. The third line often introduces a resolution, a touch of humor, or a turn of thought. Though there are no restrictions on the subject matter, favored ones include nature, virtue and rural life. The unique texture of the sijo derives from the blend of sound, rhythm and meaning. Western sijos are sometimes divided at the pauses and presented in six lines.
