WASHINGTON DC POEMS

By Alexia Saigh

Couplet

Watching plays at Ford’s Theatre can be funBut not while but not when the day is done

Who knewWhat Washington DC was like

It amazes me with everything I seeFrom The Capitol to battle field fights

Quatrain

Wisdom in the airAttracting tourists everywhereSightseeing cherry blossomsHistory is key to the land Interaction in all museumsNight sky is blooming from the pastGeorge Washington is over looking each and every personThe day is gorgeous with all to seeOpens up your eyes Nothing will stop it from growing

Cinquain

HowTall and graceful

It stands all day long and night.The reflecting pool is the touch to it.Let stand forever and ever but don’tDestroy it with the 555 ft of history.It is the key to Washington D.C. and

No one can say it is not because it is.Oh how graceful the Washington Monument is.
