Do People use poetry much when teaching?
 

This type of poem is so easy - just choose a word then make a sentence starting with each letter:

Beauty is the rustle of flowers as a breeze sweeps across a meadow of Lavender.

Excitement is the first time you rode a two-wheeler without the training wheels!

Anticipation is being pulled up the hill of the largest rollercoaster on earth!

Unity is falling backwards and being caught by friends.

Truth is when a child strokes your face and says �I love you�.

Inspiration is watching a baby�s first step.

Fun is to be with friends laughing.

Understanding is to pick an enemy up when they fall.

Laughter is the cure of all.
