Abc Animal Twist

ABC Animal Twist Adored and diverse, life thrives on earth; each day nature sees new births. Big and small, abundantly in seas and trees; great beauty breathes. Chameleons, cats, corn snakes, and coots, survive great threats in life's pursuit. Delightful dragonflies from dart frogs duck; drake-crakes scoot upon lakes. Eagles and egrets soar blue skies; an elephant endangered cries. Fabulous fauna: fairy flies, and deer upon flora feed needs. Graceful purple gallinules, young goats, and giraffes bring joyful laughs. Hag-fish, halibut and hammerhead birds…birds? Yes! Nature preserves. Insects and ibis work their charm; crusty isopods cause alarm. Jaguars enjoy tasty meals; leftovers are the jackals' appeal. Kiwi that fruits, kiwi that flies both species in New Zealand resides. Living world the Creator made; since the beginning, wisdom stayed. Matchless miracles, wonders, and births together blessed on our earth. Never alone, no matter where, life exists here, there, everywhere. Oh how beautiful, artfully wonderful, God-primed blissful place. Planet earth and outer space together share a glorious race. Question not; God loves this world. See creations glide, slide, swim, and swirl. Reverence life; it was made with love; He still watches from up above. Still breezes and sunshine please; sturgeon, shrimp, salmon, and sardines feed; Termites, thrashers, terriers and teal find niches that have appeal. Under God's skies, the umbrella birds fly. Man ponders; God replies. Venomous snakes make rodents quake; Vultures clean up for good health's sake. Weeping willows watch wolves whelp; chirping yellow warblers sing to elves. X-Ray fish known since early days leave modern man looking amazed. Yosemite toads, yetis, and yaks live on the lands without lack. Zoology on earth from alligators to zorilla zings! © Name withheld for the contest February 24, 2010 Poetic form: ABC See> ANIMAL HABITAT PICTURES LINKS for my ABC Animal Twist poem It was posted separately as a list poem.
