Day 146:

Nov 23-Abecedarian, acrostic where letters begin each line, see Psalm 119. Sections can start with the same letter, not necessary to rhyme. No set syllable count, dependent entirely upon the poet. Psalm Abecedarian poetry uses parallelism, repeating in a similar wording the basic text.

Another poem for you

Because it must be set true

Conditions must be set right

Decide to set the mood light.

Every line need not rhyme

Fitting syllables in time

Get letters prepared to go

Have your fine alphabet show

Interesting enjambment

Killing time? Go ahead then

Let the poet use the pen.

Many poems can be writ

Not many like this can fit

Opposing forces like to

Press their advantage on you.

Questions arise to hinder

Rise above the black cinder

Stay the course, you’re almost done

The alphabet can be won.

Umbrellas cover the head

Very wet if you’re in bed!

What a sound there in the band

Xylophones give them a hand.

You’re done now so take a break

Zoo trips are fun trips to take!
