A - B - C - D - E - F - G ~ gee, are these poetry form variations easy - or are they only deceptively simple?
~A~
The simplest variation of alphabet poetry consists of creating a twenty-six line poem using the alphabet, with lines beginning with consecutive letters of the alphabet from A to Z. If you decide to live a bit more dangerously, you could write a twenty-six line poem and begin your lines from Z to A.

A Poem and a Quote
Said, a lady for ‘Independence Day,’ of Peru, 7-28-2007:
“I remember coming back from work (1980-1990s) all the lights in the downtown area of Lima went out (which often happened in those days), and I’d have to run home in fear of the terrorist.
“I also remember all the windows being blown out of the buildings in Lima, especially where I worked, at the telephone company. A car bomb a few blocks away caused 14-floors of glass to break. The terrorist that claimed to be helping the people were devastating the people.

A lot of students are expected to write a literary essay based on appreciation of poetry. To make the task enjoyable we need to define poetry. What is poetry? Edmund Clarence Stedman said the following: “Poetry is rhythmical, imaginative language expressing the invention, taste, thought, passion, and insight of the human soul.”
Poetry is the creativity of a person’s imagination. Like any other literary work, it needs to be understood to be appreciated. The writer writes for a reason. His purpose may be to evoke emotion, inform, define, represent something of the world or life, entertain … Whatever the case, a poem is unique to its writer. And each poem can be analysed to be appreciated. Here are some general ideas to help you understand the poem you are reading:

I am not a poet or a spoken word artist, I am merely a web designer. My name is Abel, and for the last few years I have updated and maintained this website for Matthew “Cuban” Hernandez and the Shattered Thought team. I’ve posted updates, venues, new poetry and videos both here and in YouTube but I’ve never seen a poetry slam before until July 19th, 2007 in San Jose, California. So what this article will entail is my own personal account into what I saw, heard, and experienced.

I must fly! I said.
I want to!
I want to put my fingers around Saturn.
I want to spin and hear a whiz
around my ears and head
I want to charm it like a serpent.
Teach me how I said.
Let me know the wind and all its power.
I want to know it like my dreams describe.
You leaned forward
and kissed my eyes
put your hands behind my ears
bringing me the sound of rainbows.
Give me flowers I said.
There are a million colors to be had.
You pointed toward a unicorn
ready for my adventure
and gave me a map that led to fields of them.
