How common!
But I know!
(You can even make adjectives out of the other parts of speech, like
verbs or nouns. All you have to do is tack on an ending, like "ic"
or "ish" or "ary". For example, this boy can grow up to be a huge
man, but still have a boyish face. "Boy" is a noun, but the ending
"ish" makes it an adjective. "Boyish": that describes the huge
man's face. Get it?)
CONJUNCTION JUNCTION
"And":
That's an additive, like "this and that".
"But":
That's sort of the opposite,
"Not this *but* that".
And then there's "or":
O-R, when you have a choice like
"This or that".
"And", "but", and "or",
Get you pretty far.

always out in front
on the edges
in the crack
around the corner
from the back
in between the action
stating clearly
to your satisfaction
the location and direction
preposition gives specific information
>>Prepositions, Attention!
>>Forward March!!
Busy prepositions
always on the march
like a hoard of soldier ants
inching bravely forward
on the slimmest chance
that they might better their position
Busy, busy prepositions
The sun
sank lower
in the West
in the West
it sank
Busy prepositions
Busy, busy, busy
On the top
