Z is for Zinnias – Rhymed Acrostics A to Z



Z is for Zinnias – Rhymed Acrostics A to Z

Zooooom. Here comes spring planting ... and waiting for summer's own floral fashion show.

 
Zinnias



Zippy big blooms, they light up the yard.

Inside, they greet me, my own color guard.

Never need polishing, shiny and bright,

Nature’s own fireworks, floral delight.

I till the soil and drop seeds there to rest,

Anticipating the garden’s best dressed.

Simply delightful, my zinnias attest.

Y is for Yikes – Rhymed Acrostics A to Z



Y is for Yikes – Rhymed Acrostics A to Z

Yowie. Sometimes the most menacing may be yellow inside.


Yikes

Yon lies one-time stalker, who sought to make fright.
It seems that his bark was much worse than his byte.
King Crybaby Creeper, he posted his mind,
Each message more threatening, yet always unsigned.
Some say his persona concealed his own blight.

X is for eXiting – Rhymed Acrostics A to Z



X is for eXiting – Rhymed Acrostics A to Z

Even experts may be surprised by a certain sojourn, when an exit may actually be an entrance.

eXiting

 Explorers may not be afraid,
eXcept as they beyond are bade
 Into the place where no trail leads.
 That destination all exceeds.
 I once was blind and chanced to spy
 No sight beheld by mortal eye.
 Good things await the last goodbye.
