Hi Jeff! Somehow while wandering through your very impressive port, I found this cute item. I was attracted to it because I love animals, and this piece seemed to scream, 'animals' all over it.

I also loved the idea, as stated in your brief description, that it's an animal alphabet acrostic. When I think of acrostic poems, I imagine that they will spell out words. I thought it was very creative of you to do one showing the entire alphabet. I could imagine it was tricky to think up an animal for every single alphabet letter, but you did that smoothly!

I'll have to admit that a few of those I will look up later, just because my curiosity is getting the best of me! Those would include Vicuna and Xeme.

Good thinking to include animals like Unicorns and Narwhales! Those, I believe, added to the fun of this sweet poem.

What I found to be most impressive, is that your alphabet acrostic poem rhymed and made sense! What I mean is that I've read acrostics where people wrote lines which fulfilled their obligation of starting with the needed letter, but those lines didn't necessarily connect in any way. Your rhyming phrases did.

My favorite lines were of the Quail and the Rattlesnake! I could imagine a bird chirping, not realizing that a snake was thinking about pouncing. My Boxer was bitten by a poisonous snake not too long ago, but I won't get into that here. Anyway, the incident made me picture what was going on in your poem there.

Lastly, there are a couple of other fun things which I want to point out. I thought you went above and beyond by including animals which were less common than others. For example, you used, 'Centipede', rather than cat, and, 'duck', rather than dog.

Also, I felt that you ended your poem in a way that is sure to put a smile on your readers faces. It was all for the Zebra's birthday! What a nice way to give the poem closure. Well done.
