Hello and welcome to the June 2012 poetry challenge.
I want you'll to create a layout (digital, hybrid or traditional) that includes a poem on it written by you. It can be one stanza or it can be several stanzas.
Please post your layout to this thread by 6-30-2012 along with the poem you wrote.The subject or theme of your layout can be anything your heart desires.
The optional twist: Do a layout and poem about your father, your kids father, your grandfather or any father you know. This would be an awesome present in a frame don't you think?The prize is a $5 gift certificate to ACOT. The winner will be chosen by me.
No the poetry doesn't have to rhyme. You can use any form that you wish. Examples: Acrostic, Ballad, Cinquain, Diamante, Epitaph, Haiku, and Limerick. These are just a few.
Here are some resources for you to check out:

Here is an example:
Here is what I wrote:Hello Pretty Kitty!
How was your day?
Did you play with your toys?
Or sleep the day away?

I just thought of a little rhyme for an All About Me layout you could do. Tell us what you suck at. For example:blbabe1234 wrote:Wow....like Nancy..I SUCK at Poetry....off to think on this one
I suck at poetry
I suck at cooking
I suck at exercising
that is why my thighs
are super sizing.
Hehehehehe!
Have fun with it.

When things happen in our lives, writing is a good outlet.
When my parents divorced, that started my poetry writing.
