Uplifting
Uplifting

Elevator, escalator, go on up,
social climber, not a rhymer, on the rise,
morning coffee, oh so softly, lifting cup,
cherry picker, nothing quicker, to the skies,
sleepy breaker, now a waker, take a sup,
highly thought of, never bought off, opened eyes,
helicopter, ornithopter, vertical,
that will take off, surely make off, hear my call,
jet air liner, silver shiner, flies the heights,
stair ascending, upward trending, one more flight,
inspiration, divination, kite insight.



Line count: 11
Form: Eleventh Power
For Promptly Poetry Challenge, Week 16 2023
Prompt: Eleventh Power Poetry Form
(invented by Christina Jussaume)
The form consists of:
• 11 lines
• 11 syllables in each line
• rhyme scheme: a-b-a-b-a-b-c-c-d-d-d
• must be written about an uplifting subject.
Note: The eleven syllables force an unusual meter in this one. Essentially, it's a chant, requiring change of pace within each line, thus: 1234-5678-9-10-11.
