forgotten sad sock
somewhere tumbling and static
in the dark abyss of lost
pulled through a black hole
sorted by alien race
reborn as one of triplets...

How does a mom feed her triplets?
By getting some kinda griplet
allocating teat to liplet...

….I guess.  Seems the math
suggests that this path's
more suited to bats....

COST OF LIVING!
  -Dharga Nagar Safa

Sun light,air and water,

The triplets of God  blessed free,

For all lives on this Earth,

Why a "cost of living" only for the human?...

Love lived in the hearts of Him and Her,
 But distance shrouded fear over Her
 And to punish Her reluctance
 He gave another girl a chance
 And she brought triplets nine months later.

Food,shelter and clothing,
The triplets for human survival,
Trees fed fruits,
Dressed with leaves,
Stand tall over the heads like roofs,
Trees freed men to leave it's fort,
The men axed trees to live in comfort!...

She was ready to marry Jim.
Until she attended his family reunion.
Twins were all over the place.
Three or four sets of them.
Plus two sets of triplets.
Everyone laughed when the quintuplets arrived.
She ran off screaming!...

Live with wife, Cathie, and our middle age son Scot
Lost triplets with his former wife, both totally distraught
Like a shot to the heart
Depression off the chart
Broke up their marriage, never got over the shock...

RAIN
raging
relentless

I was a small girl
amid the violence
paralyzed by the bruised skies

“I was mesmerized by the force.”

The big birthday bash was in full swing.
The triplets, now two, entertained
the throng while eating ice cream
and cake. What a mess! Then,
they ignored their gifts
and fought over
balloons, gift 
bags, and
bows.

triplet infants in their bed 
asleep together 
cuddled like birds in a nest 
 
limbs wrapped around each other 
beneath a quilted blanket
they warmth their wee bods 

silently breathing 
awakening together 
time to change all their diapers...

SAND
airborne
dust devil

stinging whirligig
rips my hair, eyes, and skin
I’m well-scoured and abraded 

“Cleansing sand storm, if I survive.”

light a candle. 
let it glow with hope. 
let its thin film of smoke 
disperse the dark clouds. 
let it drizzle and frizzle out your stress, 
let it wash off the stench of sweat. 
let your pregnant hope 
deliver twins and triplets; 
multiple tales of success....

You are a bird in a piano
Atonal with broken wings,
panic flight of triplets
That hammer both lacquer and bass
Lieder of a bloodied beak
and shocked, artless eyes;
All the notes you play
Are glued with flightlessness
the tone of air stolen
the sky closed and dark...

The clench of the hand
when greed holds a man:
tightly.
Once not in command,
aligned with God’s plan:
lightly.

The battle of will
to hold tighter still:
nightly.
The feel of the thrill
just learning to chill:
sprightly.

from Poet's Collective, a Lai, with triplets of 5a:5a:2b, 2 per stanza....

triplets in rhyme

Just need two under par 
I've mastered this shot
and my partners will lose.

One is my only son,
and a friend from college.
Fond memory's my muse.

Soar among the Eagles!
I'll let my soul sing,
their spirits to bolster.

I let loose measured stroke.
My eagle's in flight
soaring t'wards a bunker....

Agent ninety-nine and her Smart
And would you believe a sweetheart?
A spy that is kind?
A mystery find?
The smoke of her eyes sees Bogart.

Their triplets in trouble - a game.
A mom and their daddy’s acclaim.
It’s KAOS at home.
Their ears in a dome.
The mishaps of duo so lame.

My son got a pup for his third birthday

and sure enough, they bonded straight away,

spending the day invested in child's play.


The pup's tail wags; and my son smiles with joy,

this present is better than any toy

for he loves his dog, and it loves my boy.

Triplets five, one quatrain,
Together, nineteen lines,
twined interweavingly,
thus repeating lines; rhymed
tactfully, precisely,
The rhyme scheme's like a chain;
Tough to compose, but fun.

      What happened to the old ‘Do-wop’
          piano triplets and ‘bop-she-bop’

      Romantic ballads juke-box kissed
          disco nights now wrapped in mist

      Brian Wilson’s surfboard gone
          Liverpool mopheads no more spawned... 

      New heartthrobs soar, then fade away ~
          Beethoven rolled over yesterday

Triplets Triplets Triplets
Look nothing alike 
I saw them on my swim team
Such a wierd sight
There names don't even match
Justin, Braidy and Tanner
But if you make friends with them
THEY'RE REALLY REALLY REALLY NICE
They used to be mean at school 
But now they're pretty cool
I just can't understand  
Why they are so nice to me instead 
Of being RUDE...
