Sitting On A Veranda
Written by: Sara Kendrick
Awesome panoramic scene
Balanced sounds from nature rush, touch my spirit
Cleansed soon will be the trees of rustling leaves
Dawn will awaken with a purple horizon
Earth will seem defeated with no life, then Spring
From what I am reading here in this definition of ABC poem is the first four lines have to start with words that are in alphabetical order..You can go A,B,C,D or you could go M,N,O,P or W,X,Y,Z then fifth line starting with any letter but here I went on to E but I could have started it with any letter..
Let's see how well we know our alphabet..You can use any topic in this contest but remember to keep the rules of soup..Clean and nice for we would not want to eat unclean soup for the results could be an upset stomach or even worse..
Remember ABC form , any theme....Short and sweet..
I know my poem isn't that wonderful not even awesome nor delicious but you can reach to the moon and back..
