X is 4 XYLOPHONE:
Ding dong,
Ding dong,
A little girl plays her xylophone;
Her eyes are dark,
Her cheeks are red,
Making music makes her feel well fed.

Alphabe-Thursday ( G is 4 Grace…)
Z-A challenge (X is 4 Xylophone)
I love the xylophone poem. I love the music leaves her well fed. What a great line!
Love your takes on the word Grace. I think it is one of the most beautiful words in the English language.
Very good “G” post!~Ames
I love the word grace. It is calming. It is my 2nd daughter’s middle name.

Loved the X entry so much…
The G post is quite informative… 🙂
Awesome poetry as always, Jingle! Just looking at the word ‘grace’ and its various uses in English makes one appreciate how difficult it would be to learn a foreign language.
♫ Amazing Grace.. how sweet the Ding dong sound..♫
Graceful G-X.. Lovely!~;)
I have a cat named Grace. Another noun! She was a stray that showed up the night before Thanksgiving 16 years ago. Since Grace always comes before Thanksgiving dinner we named her Grace.
fantastic post jingle, the versatility of your posts are very refreshing and fun to read.
you are a very talented person with heart of gold.
lots of love.
Very cute, as always!
GRACE…amazing 😀

I wote a poem some time now ago called “Finding Grace”…When i, myself, think of Grace, I think of the grace of God..and being graceful as a person.
beautiful poetry both, JIngle 🙂 well done!
I like how you make even prose look rhyming 😀
You are definitely in my good graces with this post!

Wonderful way to meet the demands of both memes and leave a fine message as well. Nice job, Ji!

I love the word Grace, in its many meanings.
I find grace to be amazing! I don’t just mean the grace that comes from God (though that is the most amazing)…but the grace given to each other. Beautiful!
