Hey bud, thanks a bunch. I've tried leaving it but the house is so hard to clean late at night, I don't have the enthusiasm or the fucking energy to be honest.

Very nice triolets. Beautiful picture of your daughter, in action.
I love your great rhyming scheme and your setting is so nice and bright and colorful. I can visualize that Tahlia would keep Mummy busy.
Marg loved this one too.

Reved up for Jan 10th Another and better effort

Welcome back--I know you've been busy tidying up! I did not think you could resist your own contest! It is too much of a challenge for me, especially since I already have so much on my plate. I am glad you took your inspiration from the little person who rules your life right now--Tahlia and her Tri's! You captured the "roundabout" scene so well with your energetic rhymes and modified triolet repeats. Good luck in the voting booth. -Joan

Thanks so much Joan, I tried hard to resist and then got sucked in but I don't expect to win. There are some sterling entries so far and a ripper pool...many thanks for your support.
Its crazy here at the mo so not sure if and when I will catch up.
I will try and get to as many posts as I can but have had to give family and house priority lately.
Still writing plenty and stashing.
Cheers Phillippa xoxo

I know what you mean about "writing and stowing"--that's my M.O., since I write everyday regardless how busy I am. I'm caught up at the moment, but I know that won't last. All we can do is our best and family must be our priority. Good luck and happy holidays- Joan
Comment from WilliamDeen
Your poem, I Put Them Back, She Takes Them Out, is adorable. Your daughter is normal. Yes I said normal. These are the terrible twos and next are the trying threes. But these years go so quickly and then you will wish you had them back. With each stage comes something unpleasant, but lots of good too. Limit her toys and put up most of them. Each week take down different ones and put up the ones she used that week. That way they don't get bored and they aren't overwhelmed and just pull out, the actually play with them.

Without a doubt, she's not a crout

Haha, you will NOT see a displaced syllable unless of course its one of those stoopid words you bloody yanks have cut a syllable out of...like "toward"...I think you told me though, your a Canadian aren't you so you probably have a different pronunciation again.
Nah, just kidding...great review though nonetheless.
Whoops, bit of cut and paste ya??

Comment from Louise Michelle
Another entertaining piece, C.P. Your meter and rhyme is impeccable, as always. I'm just wondering how you really handle your little devout messer upper. But when they're little they're so cute even if they are a pain in the arse.You've got my vote. Hugs, Lou

Comment from gypsynet
a very personal write that shines with such charm about your mind- boggling yet sweet experiences with a daughter... the rhyming pattern shows the charm of parenthood with vivid imagery lilting through the page... great pacing that punctuates your theme and structure of the triolet.. delightful!

Aww aren't kids delightful? I remember it well. Kids love to get all their toys out but hate putting them away. Thanks for making me smile. Good luck with these well written triolets
