Hooray you did it! And you used clever and creative Xerox and Zigzagging to make use of those tricky alphabet letters. I like the easy conversational nature of the poem.

Oh my! That took some doing! Good job! The graphic is absolutely spot on, although I had to look at it a bit because of the impossible Escher graphic (or was it intentionally impossible, considering the effort to complete the poem perfectly?) You've done a terrific job. Well done!

A very well-written alphabet poem from A - Z. A thought out plan to write the poem using each letter of the alphabet with lines and ideas flowing from the one to the next.

Hi Chrissy, very well done. Quite an ambitious piece considering it is just one of thirty. Some are just doing quite short pieces. Cleverly composed and I applaud you with the letter X - a difficult one and you have used it so appropriately. It deserves a 6 - every line made sense. Good luck with the rest of the month. Warm regards Dorothy xx

Hi Chrissy,

We're only at day 5, it feels like forever lol! I missed reading and reviewing yesterday because Molly spent the day with me. I hope to catch up today, and promote my day six poem.

I like your alphabet poem :) It all skips along nicely. I always run into trouble with x and z, but I see you handled them like a pro. Well done.

Joy xx

Hi Christine. I enjoyed reading your AbeCdarian (I think this form is called) using every letter of the alphabet. Once we get past those pesky letters we are home free. I like how you have questioned yourself throughout and your choices for Q-X-Y-Z. Good job. Marilyn

Very cleverly written. Suggestions and hugs, Trisha

C line change to " consider"

K line take out "that"

U line take out "I'm"

To me it flows easier

Is there an alphabet challenge for which you submitted this? It is clever and cute. Not sure I would want to spend the time. But, if I had to write one per day.,,, I can't promote that many. Good job. Thank you for sharing
