FIBONACCI

 Poets who chose to use the Fibonacci form, need only decide whether to use syllables, (like the cinquain, etc) or words. Whichever is chosen it is an extremely impressive visual poem with the following scheme: 1. 1. 2. 3. 5. 8. 13. 21. 34. etc. Each line consists of a series of numbers (syllable or word) produced from the sum of the two previous numbers.

Child's Prayer

Child's

Prayer

Dear God

Please bless Rex

He is a big dog

But he is out there lost somewhere.

I have looked for him but cannot find him anywhere.

Will you take care of him please and keep him safe until I can bring him back home with me?

I promise to be good and do my chores every day and eat everything on my plate and say my prayers and never let Rex get lost again.
