Choosing a shape for a poem leads to restrictions on the numbers and lengths of words -- and sometimes this generously promotes creativity. Moving through the chilly winter season, I have discovered this poem -- "The Six-Cornered Snowflake" in POETRY (December, 1989) by poet and editor John Frederick Nims (1913-99). ENJOY!
AND may your New Year 2026 happily include
lots of math and poetry!
