(63) Cosmic Alphabet

Using the alphabet as a poem

Asteroids come passing on by
Beautiful visions up in the sky
Cosmic wonders seen at night
Delivering a spectacular sight
Each magnificent feature we see
Forever in a universe that is free
Galaxies are still waiting to be seen
Heavenly bodies, they glitter and gleam
Innocent twinkling of the stars
Jupiter shows beauty, so does Mars
Keep looking at the visions above
Lights shining out, brightly with love
Meteors are coming,visiting near
New born universes,somewhere, here
Open wonders that are in their prime
Paradoxes shown from another time
Quickly passes on,a shooting star
Running on past, from somewhere afar
Space still hides countless treasures
Teaching us still, of untold pleasures
Universal feelings are what we feel
Venus, the love Goddess, is so real
Wondering of what secrets still await
Xmas of endless galaxies are our fate
Yonder, up in Heavenly skies, a beautiful dream
Zodiacal river flows from a starbound stream

Author's Note

One of two poems I have used the alphabet letters ; ). It is called ABC poetry and was introduced to me by a friend a year ago.

Reviews

Very nice! You managed to rhyme while making it acrostic! At least I think that still counts as acrostic, even though it isn't an actual word. Anyways, I liked everything except for the "x"..but that may have been the best possible solution, I dunno.
Well done :)

[Judy Ponceby]

Fabulous job. What a great job you did. :)

[Shane Williams]

[Erinne S.]

This was a very unique piece. I loved how you used the alphabet to give creativity and a different spin on this work. I've never seen this done before and I very much enjoyed reading it.

I was impressed with how you used X and Z. Wasn't sure how you were gonna use those when I saw the theme you were using.

Great job!

[Audrey Howitt]

Very clever. I was wondering what you were going to do with "Z" then I scrolled down.
