HOT AIR BALLOONS - AN ACROSTIC

BRIAN & ANGELA

H ot Air Balloons - red and

O range -  Yellow - Green

T hey're Blue and Violet

 

A ll colours of the rainbow

I love the way they fill and

R ise up up and away - WOW !

 

B eautiful to see and such an

A wesome experience to ride.

L eaving the Earth on hot air

L ovely !  Pull the lever - which

O pens the gas flame - which

O rganises the hot air up the

N ow filled balloon canopy. Oh

S uch fun - FREE AS A BIRD !

 

Please try it if you can - BRIAN

  • Comment from author about the poem: I love HOT AIR BALLOONS - riding in the basket is the oldest form of air travel ! Very safe and I always feel "Free as a Bird" ! A much more natural experience than a Jumbo Jet - BRIAN.

    Hmmm, this poem says it's an Acrostic, but it's really not. However, I enjoyed the read.

    • BRIAN & ANGELA

      HI MERMAID - OH YES IT IS ! To show it really is (and was) an ACROSTIC I have reoriented it and spaced the first letter OK ! Thanks for your comment - BRIAN

      • BRIAN & ANGELA

        HI MM - Thanks BRIAN

      • MsMermaid

        Here is an Acrostic I did, so you know what an Acrostic is:

        Ponies prancing
        Acrobats perform
        Riding the back of a Unicorn.
        All sorts of clowns. Elephants too
        Doing their best to dazzle you.
        Enchantment for children. I love a parade.

        Notice that the first letter of each line, when read vertically, spells "Parade". That's what makes it an acrostic.

      • MsMermaid

        Here is your acrostic...

        Hot air acts like Helium
        Over the landscape they rise
        Touch the clouds with fingertips

        Alive is the feeling inside.
        I'd love to ride in one daily
        Rising so very high

        But brought back to earth too soon
        Awesome, wonderful ride.
        Loving the sense of freedom
        Looking at landscape below.
        Oh, what a wonderful feeling.
        Oh, what a wonderful show.
        Nothing else in the world like it!
        So why doesn't everyone try it?

        • BRIAN & ANGELA

          THANKS MM - Love your acrosticl poem - much better than mine ! Have you tried writing rhyming acrostics - much more dificult ! BRIAN

        • MsMermaid

          If I knew how to make the first letter of each line bold, it would make the acrostic better.

        • MsMermaid

          Yay! You did it, Brian. Nicely formatted Acrostic
