Chatterbox: Inkwell

I think that

I think that for the next couple weeks that we should honor poetry, so each day I will post a different poem of the day!

Today's Poem: Acrostic

An acrostic poem is a poem where you use a name and you write something for each letter that has to do with the person/ thing.

Example:

Chocolate lover

Hates delli meat (except Roast Beef)

Observant like a spy

Confident

Overdramatic

Challenge: Try to make an Acrostic poem out of what Andy P.C. says. (Because the letters don't normaly make a real word, you can just use words that have to do with what Andy P.C. is.)

Example:

Unusual

Young(ish)

Very interesting

Zany

Try to make your own!

great idea, Choco! -Admin
