An ABC poem has a series of lines that create a mood, picture, or feeling. Lines are made up of words and phrases. The first word of line 1 begins with an A, the first word of line 2 begins with a B etc.
Another poem for Lance:
Before we once again
Count the days since
Dawn has seen you dancing,
Energetic and full of voice,
First we should rejoice, and
Grant that whatever our
Hopes may be for tomorrow,
In your mere existence is
Joy.
Keen as we are for
Laughter to spring from your
Mouth, we cannot force
Nature to render you whole.
Oh, to be sure we pray for
Patience, but even in your
Quiet we will wait,
Relentless,
Strong, and
Tired.
Unable to fix you, your
Vigorous family is a troop of
Warriors, who will fight for
X number of days, months or
Years until you laugh again.
Zestfully yours, Trish
