3x3x3. Thankful of Leilya Pitre for her 2nd Day Prompt of Tricubes (for Spring). I Love the Brevity, Rhythm, and Precision of this Poetic Style

It's cold, but the sneezing season is upon us. I went to campus and attended a dis/ability simulation hosted by a junior. Trip, who created the program to help students and professors to experience what it's like to a student with a dis/ability on Fairfield University's campus (a conversation that many of us in K-12 educational settings have often, but I've not seen so much in higher education. He, and the program, were brilliant and having a conversation with his parents was very educational and motivating. 

It's Day 2 of VerseLove and the assignment was to write a Tricube: a three stanza poem, with three lines a piece, and 3 syllables per line.

I think because of the temperature, I went with the allergy part of the year. Lucky for me, I have Flonase in the house for my nasal mayonnaise. I also have plenty of tissues.

AND TODAY, I have space to actually think. After this post, I am going to make a plan to make the best use of a day without meetings, school visits, classes, or deadlines. I am also caught up with grading (which is odd), so I'm going to use the day to strategize the remainder of the semester.

Ah, but verse to the Day 3 poem.
