Examples of Acrostic Poetry

SUMMER
Sunshine warming my toes,
Underwater fun with my friends.
Making homemade ice cream on the porch,
Many long nights catching fireflies.
Early morning walks to the creek,
Reveling in the freedom of lazy days.

The Spanish people think Cervantes

Equal to half a dozen Dantes;
An opinion resented most bitterly
By the people of Italy.

Example of Cinquain poem

Watermelon
Juicy, sweet
Dripping, slurping, smacking
So messy to eat
Yummy

Snow
Lovely, white
Falling, dancing, drifting
Covering everything it touches
Blanket
