Acrostic PoemTemperate Deciduous Forests have four distinct seasons. Every spring many flowers bloom. Many colored leaves fall in autumn. Photographers come all over to take pictures. Each summer is filled with sunshine. Red, orange, and yellow leaves fill the air . A totally different scene is shown each season. Temperate Deciduous Forests have many biotic features.Every fall the wind blows while leaves fall.
Frost appears on plants toward the beginning of winter. Only blinding whiteness is shown in winter blizzards. Raging sunlight scorches the ground in the summer. Each winter the ground is covered with snow. Streams flow as spring begins and the snow melts. Today, pollutants are harming the trees and killing wildlife.
