L Milton Hankins Poet Triolet

Sleeping For the Winter

Green fields covered with snowy white
Lulled to sleep for the winter season,
Even though the sun is shining bright
Green fields covered with snowy white,
Sunbeams dance like the fairyland sprite
Twirling about for no special reason,
Green fields covered with snowy white
Lulled to sleep for the winter season.

Tom Cunningham February 1, 2022 at 8:01 AM A chilly winter scene you paint with your words Milton, we've escaped so far but they're forecasting some for mid feb. Tom L Milton Hankins February 1, 2022 at 12:54 PM Well, I hope your weather continues to be mild, Tom. We've had to blizzard condition snowstorms and expecting another one to hit on day after tomorrow. This one with ice, so I fear a power outage.

L Milton Hankins February 1, 2022 at 7:12 AM Caren, I really was thinking about you when I wrote those two lines. I swear.

Kim Rodrigues January 31, 2022 at 5:37 PM So pretty! Triolets are fun to craft! L Milton Hankins January 31, 2022 at 6:25 PM Yes, they are, Kim. I've been playing around with them for a long, long time. Occasionally, I come up with one I like particularly.
