You met the challenge of an ABC poem, and added the additional challenge of rhyming end rhymes which also followed an ABC format. Additionally, your poem tells a story and includes artwork that pairs perfectly with the poem. Best wishes in the contest.

Hi there Lorraine! Thanks so much for the kind words for my A B C D E poem. It was fun adding the challenge of monorhyme, and add the last word too with the consecutive letter, as well as beginning and still make the story make sense. Thanks again for your very kind comments, my dear friend

I was moved when I read that this poem was based on a true story. You did a great job with the ABC format, and you even managed to end with the alphabetical theme, too! That's impressive. Thank you for sharing, and best wishes to you.

What a stellar individual. Beautifully penned and illustrated in this form. I especially enjoyed the letter at the beginning and the end. A marvelous idea which added interest and caught my eye.

Sending you my best today as always, and my best wishes for the upcoming contest.

Hi,
This is a good ABC poem which shows a truly generous and caring soul of both the land and its people. The world would be a much better place if all millionaires were like Bob.
Keep writing and stay healthy.
Good luck in the contest.
Joan

Hi Mystery Author,
You've done an excellent job with this entry. Not only did you start each line in order from A to E, but you ended in like display. And, as well, you told a great story about a philanthropist who got involved. He dug deeper than his wallet. Too bad there weren't more Bobs in the world, but we have to be thankful for the ones we have.
Good Luck in the contest!
Cheers,
Kimbob

This fits the ABC format, and bonus points for ending the lines with the required letter as well! This tells a complete story, and also rhymes. You've fit a lot into a compact poem.
