Mittens Or Gloves

Mittens or Gloves


Nothing much has ere been written
About the virtues of the mitten
Knit or fabric, long or wide
Made to tuck your hands inside

Warm and toasty I am told
For when as one they all do fold
Tucked together with each other
Lined up one after another

But then of course there is the glove
The shape and form so many love
Made so that they can encase
Each single digit in its space

The issue that remains is whether
They're warmer alone or when together

This is a cute and humorous rhyme. Clever and funny. Either one is good in cold weather. Nice job

Living in Canada I can tell you mitts are warmer than gloves. Great rhythm and rhyme here my friend. Enjoyed the read. God Bless, \JB

Yup, I pull on the mittens when I crank up the snowblower here in Maine.
