I think - sacred
-wondrous galaxies appear, vibrant - yet
quietly promising opulence -
behold unearthed curiosity
-momentus-
zenith reigns, delights...
ever knowing love's xenial hours
-forever-
just blest

The Skeptic’s Kaddish, W3 Prompt # 200 is given to us by Christine. We are asked to write an alphabet poem. I chose option 1.
Option 1 — 26 words, A–Z once each (Any order)
Option 2 – a 26 line poem where the first word of each line begins with the next letter of the alphabet in order, a thru z.
Sgeoil 
clever — and I lke that new word, ‘xenial’ : looking it up now: however did you come across it?

It was a new word for me too! I had to have a word that started with each letter, so I googled words that start with x and then I looked up the definitions on a few and I felt xenial fit! There’s a lot more words that start with x than we realize! Thanks, John for reading and commenting.

Nicely done! I think this option was significantly harder than the one I chose.

Heather, I really liked this — “quietly promising opulence” especially stood out to me.
You make the alphabet constraint feel playful, but the poem still flows.
