Day 13 ~ “Tricube Poem” for “30 Poems in 30 Days” #NationalPoetryMonth

Day 13 ~ “Tricube Poem” for “30 Poems in 30 Days” #NationalPoetryMonth

I’m always on the lookout for poetry forms that are new even to me. I happened across this one ~ let’s give it a try!! Oh my!!

It’s called a TRICUBE and the premise is

 3 + 3 + 3 =

Three stanzas

Three lines each

Three syllables per line

RHYMING DOES NOT MATTER . . . but watching your syllables does!! So COUNT THEM OUT!! Three syllables per line!

How hard can that be? You might be surprised. Here are a few I came up with but I’m expecting better offerings from all of you! Cheers!!

A new day

Rising sun 

Hope eternal

List of chores

I’ll get done

Later on

Nightfall comes

Chores not done

Not surprised

~~~~~~~

Baby boy

Toothless grin

Wants grandma

Hug my boy

Here’s a toy

What a joy

Baby boy

Cries nonstop

Go see mom

~~~~~~~

 

My kitten

Heart smitten

‘Til bitten

Mean ol’ cat

What a brat

None of that

Sad kitty

Not guilty

Still picky
