What It Means To Be A Hockey Mom

Poem A Day In February 2026
The Clogyrnach is 8, 8, 5, 5, 3, 3 syllables with an AABBBA rhyming end words that is many times read out loud. This is our contest for our last week, beginning tomorrow. A tricube format came originally from Mike Singleton and then Calvin London, who said, "Mike is a constant source of unofficial challenges and presents different forms of poetry. In a recent story, he talked about Tricube poetry. It is a very structured (three) x (three) x (three) format, the syllables for each of the three lines and three stanzas in the poem."
