Mad-Lib Style Poetry

We homeschool.  Last year, our son did Mad-Lib style poetry with his vocabulary words resulting in some interesting poems.  Hope this one brings a smile to your face as it did ours.

I go forward, after stopping.
I proceed.
You weren’t easily approached.
You weren’t accessible.
You break away from me.
You secede.
Your tummy could be subjected to a series of actions that yield change.
Your tummy was processible.

Update: If you’re interested, you can download the details about the approach we used here: MadLibsStylePoetry (pdf).
