Choose a letter from the alphabet, and then choose a word for a title using that letter as your prompt.
Use that same letter in a word in each line of your poem.
It doesn't have to be the same word, nor does it have to be the first letter of the word; just in the word.
Example:
Pie
Pecan pie is scrumptious,
with ice-cream on top.
I eat a great big piece,
each crumb, yes every drop!
A pretty crappy example, but you get the idea..
I don't care how many times you enter.

I feel dumb
It took me a couple of minutes to get this... -

Don't feel dumb. I really don't explain things well. I am sure there was an easier explanation.

Do you get extra points if you write it in Greek, starting with pi?
Had to ask. (g) I saw the picture and then your directions, and I got to wickedly thinking. -

lol...nah

Can I enter a 26 part poem
-
-
As long as the title first letter is in each line...lol
-
-
I was thinking of a 26 stanza poem, each stanza a different letter if you get my drift...
-
-
Oh hun...no, that changes the whole contest requirements...nice thought though.

A single letter is so flat
Where is the point of doing that
When I could have a lot more fun
By doing all instead of one
But it's your game I shall not fret
Just do this as a sort of bet
Before I finish I may quit
But I shall do a little bit
Can't you see the way it goes
All will catch on I do suppose
Each letter takes its proper plaace
In a sort of paper chase
Do not worry I won't moan
I'll do this thing all on my own
Depending how I do I'll see
If anyone will dance with me
Each and every stanza penned
Will bring me nearer to the end
And at the end I'll have to stop
Or maybe before that I'll drop
Forgive me now my little game
I like to fool and get the blame
It's all in fun I like your pie
It made a feast just for the eye
I must go now but may be back
To get in just one more attack
And give a verse in proper style
And hope that you will give a smile!
there are seven
