I love the cartoon characters! I have a plan for another challenge later on. But for now..... It's poetry time again.
This time, I want you to come up with a few lines of poetry with an AABB rhyme scheme. This means that every pair of lines rhyme. The twist is that the first letters will spell either your subject or something connected to your poem. I'll compose a couple of quick examples (remember I am not spending much time on these and don't expect you to either : )
Fins fanning with grace and poise
In a wet world that has no noise.
Swimming your way, and going where?
Happy in your tank, with scarcely a care.
Happily sipping from my cup
Only till my drink's used up.
The smooth concoction slips right down
Canceling many a worry and frown.
O happy remedy for winter's chill
Comforting cold bones with a toasty thrill!
Outside I can dream of the warmth that I'll find
As I take off my mittens and leave winter behind!
You can do this! Have fun!

Bubbles float with glossy sheen,
Aromas rise in colorless steam,
The warmth deliciously does wrap,
Healing waves around you lap.

just checking to see if there will be any more new posts? If so, how frequently are new ones put up?
I only recently found this blog and look forward to it ... but hadn't seen any new posts in a while.
Hi! Generally we shoot for once a week, but sometimes we get behind. Check in again over the next couple of days. And thanks for stopping by!

My meemom is the best!
Especially when she's our guest!
Everything she does is sweet.
Many blessings she gives are such a treat!
Oh, she is so dear to me!
My meemom . . . precious is she!

My grandma is great!
Extraordinary and top-rate.
Excellent and wonderful,
My grandma is also beautiful.
O, yes, she's mine . . .
My lovely Valentine!
Aww... I think someone has a very blessed MeeMom, too : )
Are these "few lines of poetry" supposed to have a specific category? Not sure I can do this, unless you tell me to write about some place or story. I mean, I'd really love to jump in, type away, and be a part of all this fun...but it'd be a lot easier if you told me to write about a thing, or someone.
I'm sorry if all this makes me sound picky, but without specifics this kind of thing's tricky.
It's okay you didn't see the letters part ... I like your poem. It's clever.
