By definition, a gerund is a verb that ends with -ing.

With this in mind, we can see that "dancing" and "writing" are gerunds. If we need to change them into infinitives, then we need to know what infinitives are.

An infinitive is the basic for of a verb with the word "to" in front of it. If you look at the end of your sentence where you have "to paint," you have an example of an infinitive.

To change our two gerunds, we need to drop the -ing and make each for basic: "dance" and "write". Then, we just need to add the word "to" in front of it, making it "to dance" and "to write."

Thus, our sentence should now read "I keep telling people that I love to dance, to write, and to paint.

This question is missing the poem. I've found it online. It is as follows:

Fragrant

Lovely

Opened wide

Wind blows

Eager bee

              - Rachelle Kreisman

What does the acrostic poem by Rachelle Kreisman describe? a flower in the springtime the sound of ducks quacking a young horse, galloping in a field flocks of little duckling

Answer:

The poem describes a flower in the springtime.

Explanation:

An acrostic poem uses the letters of its topic word(s) as the first letter of each line. Notice the first letters in Kreisman's poem spell flower:

Fragrant

Lovely

Opened wide

Wind blows

Eager bee

Besides that, each line of the acrostic poem offers a description related to the topic. In this case, we get to know the flower is fragrant and lovely, that it is in bloom, swaying with the wind while attracting bees. In summary, it is describing a flower in the springtime.
