This form is called the Treochair and it’s an Irish form that uses a little bit of rhyming and a simple syllable count. We are now 11 days away from the completion of this project!
December Mornings
Winter Park
Colorado, where mountains
Dance in the edge in the dark
Chilled mornings
Snow bubbled all on the porch
Deer settle against warning
Omelet done –
With green, red, and orange peppers
warm, we all eat with the sun.
Ski boots clank
Dried now by the burnt-out fire
Shuffling of coats, they yell thanks
It’s quiet
The dog perches on the couch
Crows scatter in clouds – silent
