My 1st tricube
Try tricube's
Limited
Syllables
This thin sill
Cannot bear
Many words
Would wooden
words crack in
two or three?
I just learned about the tricube form from Jenn Patino. How much meaning can we stuff into so few syllables? I love playing with these kinds of things!

“How much meaning can we stuff into so few syllables?”
Exactly!! I didn’t even know forms like this existed! Nicely done!
Neither did I, D. ๐ค
Thanks!
David
Of course!
I like what you’ve done here with your words and complementary photo.
๐ you know, Michele, I’ve really started thinking seriously about which photos I use & how they shape the image of the poem – it’s a bit of art in and of itself…

David
Very good, yes, photos do add more layers to our artistic poetic stories. ๐ Don’t take it too seriously though… have fun with it! ๐
well it’s serious fun ๐
Yes! That is an artform too, seriously. ๐

I like especially the second stanza. (K)
Thanksโฃ๏ธ
The tricube is fun to do and this one shows it! Playful and yet a tiny bit of serious levered between the syllables!

Whoa!! ๐ฅฐ

Delightful, especially the last one.
I hope you had a nice Pesach, David.
Be well,
D
I did! Thank you, Dolly. How about you?

It was lonely, but very nice. But! I am getting the two youngest grandkids this coming Shabbat – yay! I am already baking.
do they have any special requests? ๐
Sure – they are chocolate kids: the more chocolate, the better. Even my challahs come with chocolate chips. And, since it’s the first Shabbat after Pesach, I am making a Shlissel Challah (will post it some time today). My grandson’s birthday is mamash on Shabbat, so I hope he gets the piece with the key. These are our adopted son’s kids.
Wow; I’ve never known anyone who actually makes that kind of challah – I’ve only read about it. You never fail to amaze, Dolly.
I had a very old-fashioned shteiteldike Hassidishe upbringing, David, with some traditions going back centuries,
My neshamah is jealous.
But you know that “even a Tzaddik cannot go where a Baal Teshuvah stands.” My Kavod to you and to every Baal Teshuvah is without measure.
Yes, but this also leads to excuses, as it does in my case. If everything I do is more than I once did, then I can permit myself not to do everything because (which is exactly how I think about it, for better or worse)
Every Baal Teshuva proceeds in steps. Excuses are pretty normal. Eventually, little by little, one internalizes the true meaning of every MItzvah. There is no need to rush, David; H-shem has unlimited time.
Do you know how Jews came to America through Ellis Island? Yidl by yidl (it’s not my joke; I believe it’s Jackie Mason’s).
Great job again David.

Speaking of poetic forms, David. Have you heard of a “bagua” poem?
No! I had to look it up ๐
Excellent!๐
