A Newborn Child

Amazing the beauty of a newborn child Never in life to receive more adulation Peering from the crib meek and mild, Amazing the beauty of a newborn child Genetics of lines of ancestors restyled Creating in family a major sensation, Amazing the beauty of a newborn child Never in life to receive more adulation. Creating in family a major sensation, Long anticipated with months of waiting Beginnings of a brand-new generation Creating in family a major sensation, That calls for another joyous celebration No reason for unnecessarily debating, Creating in family a major sensation Long anticipated with months of waiting. [Interlocking Triolet] written January 16, 2022

This is one of my favorite triolets, and all of my favorite triolets are Hank's triolets.

Hmmm...well, maybe I'm writing something worthwhile, after all.

Nothing beats the joy a newborn child brings to their parents and their families, indeed a time for celebrations. Love the form with the repeating lines Milton. Tom PS has it arrived yet? I saw on the news parts of the US hit with snowstorms.

Right now, we have no snow, but I went out to my car, and I think I felt the sting of some rain and sleet. We're supposed to get the snow this afternoon. Interestingly, the states southeast of us seem to have gotten the worst of the storm.
