I will never give up my warm mittens- for those stiff and so awkward gloves, for mittens are warm like kittens. I will never ... give up my warm mittens! Oh, gloves I will not be missin' for any kind are not my loves. I will never give up my 'warm' mittens, for those stiff and ... so awkward gloves! ____________________ December 31, 2022 Poetry/Triolet/I Love My Mittens Copyright Protected, ID 12-1513-507-31 All Rights Reserved, 2022, Constance La France Written for the Standard contest, Of what use are gloves to fingers that only understand mittens sponsor, John Lawless, Judged 01/24/2023 Ninth Place

Hi Constance. Mittens. Fond memories from long gone years. My older sister knitted some for me. Something cosy about them and yes better than gloves. Don't seem to see them these days. Thanks for this, a lovely memory. Tony

Reads like a good contender for the contest. Way to go. Those mittens can be warm. I often wondered how well they work in the really cold like you have where you live. Thanks for sharing this one and for dropping by my page. Sara

Sara, thank you so much for the visit, I find my mittens are warmer than any glove even in temps of minus 20, Constance
