The moon
Bright  & far
Glows and hangs,
Gently
Flashlight.

A flower,
Red and jumping
Soothes and comforts,
Peacefully
Excitement.

A duck
Loud & quick,
Swimming & flying,
Crazily
Fear.

The heart
thick & thin
pounding & screaming
happily
Love.

Chris,

I like this! Is this a recognized style or did you just make it up? From the material I usually post, you can tell I prefer a few words that say a lot. Nicely done.

INclan,

Parts of speech poem is what I call it.  It helps me teach my daughter the parts of speech and to look for various parts.  It is simple & fun & can be challenging.  It usually starts with a, an, the and then goes to a noun.  I have the structure if you want it.  

Chris
