Thanks for \"visiting\" ~ coments welcome ~ Love BRIAN
STRUCTURE: ABCDarian (Alphabet) Poems are fun and
are often just a list ~ Q X & Z always present a problem !
In the case of Cities Q X & Z are not a problem therefore
I decided to invoke two important elements that give any
Poem its FLOW ~ I am a Performance Poet. These key
elements are Rhyme & Rhythm ! Each line is written in
Iambic Tetrameter (8 syllables per line) and the Rhyme
Pattern is Rhyming Doublets (aa bb cc etc). Some of the
Rhymes are (whaat we call) HALF RHYMES (Cuzco and
Frenso etc) There are only nine lines (to accommodate
26 Cities) so the final line has Internal Rhyme ! To keep
the Rhythm and the Flow. I hope this helps the READER
to understand how the poem was constructed ~ XOXOX
