We tend to use the same tired adjectives over and over again. Words like tall, old, nice, happy become almost meaningless. This is where the thesaurus can help out.
We are going to create an adjective poem. Your task is to choose an impressive and interesting adjective (you can use a thesaurus to help you with this), and follow the formula below to create your poem. We've chosen the adjective "elegant".
