POEM STARTER
Using twelve stanzas, write a poem about each month of the year.
The Months in Rhyme
January
Quite contrary
Sunny, snowy
Rainy, blowy.
February
Extraordinary
Love in the air
Romance there.
March on through
The month we do
With nary a day
To have any play.
April does shower
People all glower
But life rain brings
And the bird sings.
May brings flowers
And the sun powers
Laughter and smiles
Through all the miles.
June brings rest
And an empty nest
The sun shines long
While we sing a song.
July brings heat
A welcome treat
Crops grow tall
For harvest in fall.
August is hot
Believe it or not
Sometimes too much sun
Gets the spirit undone.
September
Time to remember
Going to school
To be nobody’s fool
October
Moves on over
From summer to fall
Good weather for all.
November
We remember
We are living
With thanksgiving.
December
Time to remember
The Holy One
God’s own Son.
