The author's poem gives great advice! The words are descriptive,
clear and creative. I loved the poem, and the last line said it all! The
artwork is perfect and compliments
these words. Great poem!

Hello Poet,

Your message was delivered nicely, with rhyme. The presentation was interesting, but not needed just because of the emphasis of the Acrostic. Good luck in the contest.

Kim

    Hi Kim, thank you for the very kind comments and for the lovely review.
    You mentioned my presentation not needed, as I was a bit confused and I want to make sure there was nothing showing that I don't know about.

    Do you mean my description after the title. Because every post is asked to do one of those. But besides that I did it in monorhyme which I usually do something to challenge myself with every post that I do. But thank you very much for your kindness.

    No, I just meant setting the first letter in each line to accentuate the Acrostic wasn't necessary.

    I appreciate your comments Kim. I have tried it both ways, but always liked it separated. But I will remember what you said for next time and try it the other way again. Thank you for the feedback. I always appreciate it.

What a lovely poem. This should probably be a daily affirmation. Being a good and caring person costs nothing but leaves us feeling wonderful. It shouldn't have to be reminded to be decent but alas, it does. Wonderful acrostic. Gretchen

I admired this acrostic with monorhyme. I know neither one of those is easy to pull off, and you've done both! Thank you for sharing, and best wishes to you.

The picture with the Siamese cat drew me in, as I have a Seal Point and love Siamese.

I enjoyed your Acrostic poem - it is full of compassionate ways of giving back and the entire presentation works together. "Offer rainbows, not the rain" is my favorite line in the entire poem.

I wish you luck in the contest.

Nice complementary picture art choice, clearly illustrating your message.
" P ray for sickly to regain" This might read better as 'Pray that the sickly, their health, regain'.
Met the acrostic poem criteria with a good message. Good luck!

    Hi there my friend. Can you give that to me in my metered seven syllables? LOL.. Otherwise it would have looked and sounded more accurate. I did struggle with that one though. Prayer that health of ill regain or retain? What do you think? Like I said I challenge myself w not just the acrostic, but a monorhyme and metered small amount of syllables, plus it must tie into the subject.
    Thanks so much for your kind review.

    'Metered'?? I've never paid for those tickets. Please, stick with what you have there. LOL

Author.
I wish I had a six star left in my back pack in order to award you.
This is perfectly written as far as I'm h ch concerned. I didn't need a dictionary to look up words simply to make a rhyme.

Well explained!
Thank you...
John

    John, I hear you. That is why I don't try to show off with fancy words and expressions. I say what I mean and straight to the point. I appreciate your very kind words and review. Mucho Grande!

This is the first time I've read an Acrostic poem with the beginning letters on the right side. It actually worked for me.
Also love your message. We definitely could use more compassion in our world today.
Thanks for sharing this with us and good luck in the contest.

    Oh No, Hon, there must be something wrong with your keyboard if you are seeing my beginning letters on the right side of the poem. My letters are on the same side as everyone else so I hope you look again, or do you mean that my poem was in the middle towards the right side of the space in the box? Thank you for the very kind review.
