"Today, we started getting our firsts glimpses of snow for the season. So, we will write a Triolet about something snow. That’s it and we’ll see how it goes."


The forecast is for snow today
but I won't get my hopes up high.
I don't sense it coming this way.
The forecast is for snow today.
How I'd love to ride in a sleigh,
warm up with cider by and by.
The forecast is for snow today
but I won't get my hopes up high.

I am a freelance poet, born and bred in Brooklyn, New York. I live with my husband, John, and two charming rescue dogs–Marion Miller and Murphy. We spent eight lovely years in Portland, OR, but are now back in New York. My goal is to create and share poetry with others who write, or simply enjoy reading poetry. I hope to touch a nerve in you, and feel your sparks as well.

    I love the feeling you’ve evoked here, a gentle nostalgia, yet also the hope for snow, because the repetition of not getting hope’s up high has the opposite effect.
