This was a writing prompt I remember from awhile back, but I can't remember from where. For some reason I woke up with it on my mind, so I thought I'd try it. It's an alphabet poem. I don't really need to tell you that I'm not a poet, as you can easily see. I think that's the reason I was so determined to try my hand at this. So without further ado, here's my 26 line poem, where the first letter in each line starts with each letter of the alphabet.
Ode To My Son On A Sunday Morning
A calmness came over me
Before I even rose from bed,
Cody had crept in early
Deciding to snuggle before my rising.
Every hug and kiss
Fell upon my eager cheek,
Giving me a peace and
Hope that all his days God keep.
In love with my son
Justly describes my heart,
Keenly is his wit
Loving is his heart.
Mommy is what he calls me
Needing me still awhile,
Open is his mind
Precious is his love.
Quietly we linger
Revelling in the morning
Sunlight coming through
The bedroom window,
Under the covers we stole, not
Vacating till we smelled
Waffles coming from the kitchen.
X is a letter he loves
You can rest assured,
Zany is this poem, but so much fun!

How sweet. Mamas sure do love their boys!
you did a great job I have boys too
what a beautiful ode!
