This is a wonderful learning tool for children Robert. Superbly written. Congratulations on your win. I missed this when it was POTD. My husband had died recently and I needed time away from poetry. I am sharing your poem with my young granddaughter. Congratulations very belated. Thank you. Blessings xxoo

Truly awesome. I've tried to do one of these, and can't get past the Q, X & Z, for the most part. Excellent!

Although your lines are well written, you didn't follow the rules about the number of lines allowed.

:) Of all the animals listed. My favorite is: "Owls hoot" It is said that one should be as wise as an *Owl*. This is so clever and creative. Your thoughts bring a smile. Congratulations Robert, on Poem of the Day. :) Brandy
