7/30

 An Acrostic


Skin, skin, everywhere

Keeps me warm from the soles  of my feet to the ends of my hair

Even though my skin is thin, it keeps me protected

Layers upon layers my skeleton moves me, brain directed

Every which way connected by tendons and such

Touch me wrong, I just may break and require a crutch

Organisms and bones make me all that I am, healthy or sick

No matter how many times I break the count is still 206!

Ode to My Skeleton 

Oh my skeleton you bring me joy 

and the ability

to glide and move and dance

with elegance

no matter the pain my joints may give

you hold me altogether

my strong and sturdy skeleton.
