Shining picture. A very fine acrostic. I looked it up for you.
I doesn't matter if you use one word or more.
They are all called acrostic poems. Here is one for you.

This I Believe
He watches
Everyday

God knows
Only he has the wisdom
Surely we know this
Perhaps we forget
Everyone should remember
Let us pray

DonandVicki,

What a great acrostic poem. The one word lines are very clever and it works well. You two are very talented. This short poem speaks volumes and leaves the reader in awe.

Well done and good luck in the contest

Cecilia

I have not yet tried an acrostic. You did an excellent job and your message is timeless. It's hard for us to imagine the gift that we've been given. Thank you.

What beautiful words to our unworthy souls. And what is more important in our lives than that message? And this being the month that we received this Gift makes it even more special as you brought an extra sparkle to the real meaning of the holidays.

Thank you for the words and message, and I hope you know how wonderful it is to have fellow Christian's following each other. You are true friends and I appreciate you and love your acrostic. Thank you so much for sharing this as you never know when you may hit the right person at the right time. God Bless!
Love, Debi

I will always find the time to humble myself before my lord, that I may find peace from all gods words to create eternal light.
Keep the spiritual growth through your poetry and I will always read more. Have a blessed day. Shadrach

I like your minimalist acrostic poem! God's great love for us (or as you said "empathy") moved Him to sacrifice Himself to grant us eternal life as He originally planned for Adam and Eve.
Typos in your note:
postitive I didnt come (positive I didn't)


While I didn't find the name, "minimalist acrostic" the single word per line acrostic has been done before such as:
A Closer Look
Glowing
Orange
Lacy
Delicate
Fanning
Iridescent
Shimmering
Hoverer

You pared the acrostic down to a few words, but they are words of truth, and they explain the gospel succinctly. I like this minimalist acrostic. Blessings and best wishes in the contest. Carol
