Congratulations on Milestone Post #50! A very well done Acrostic, Lisa.

The one true path to salvation is, indeed, laid out for every soul, in the Bible...

I hope you are up and about without pain by now!

    Thank you so much for your very kind review! I have been thinking about you a lot and gaff planned to email you soon.
    I got the flu and the bronchitis 5 weeks ago and I am still dealing with the cough.
    Life can be challenging? that is for sure.
    Hugs, Lisa

    Hi Sally,
    I have not been active except to review recently. Recovering from a new knee really took a lot out of me and I lost way too much weight. Then 3 weeks ago I got the flu and then bronchitis...
    We are going to see our daughter in Texas next week and stay in Austin for two weeks...Have not been back to the states in 4 years so this is pretty exciting...Thank you for always being so kind,
    Lisa

This bible acrostic, RIGHTEOUS, has the proper formatting and gives the readers another shot at the realization that God is not mocked and will return again some day.

    Yes, Bill the proper formatting and I came in third... but others did not do the rules of the contest... I find this a bit frustrating. Choosing one word that works is far more difficult than an entire line... at least it is for me. I wrote to Tom about this but have not yet heard back.

A very nice example of a Bible Acrostic poem for the writing prompt. The message was clear and fit the criteria using the word RIGHTEOUS down the left hand side. One word per line makes it more difficult to form a clear meaing, in my opinion, and you did a nice job. Good luck.

    Hi Marilyn,
    Yes, I did work hard at finding just the right single word to fit the criteria for the contest...and I came in third... but others wrote entire sentences...Choosing a single word is difficult... for me it is far more difficult than an entire sentence. I have written to Tom about this bust have not heard back yet.
    Thank you so much for taking the time to read and review my work.

Nice! I like that you used significant words only, instead of wasting letter 'I' on a word like "is" or "in".

Your choice of formatting is excellent. The blue first letters match the sky nicely and stand out clearly.

Suggestion: If you added a space at the beginning of Line 2, the 'l' would line up vertically better in the acrostic word.

    Oh gosh I did not realise that...Thank you so much...I will correct that.. I came in third place although I did exactly what the rules said to do... one word per line as per the example of the rules...
    First time I have seen you....so I will be looking up your work.

    Congratulations on placing! Well-deserved!

    (I was also surprised that other people didn't really stick to the prompt, which clearly indicated one word per letter.)

Unknown bard, smooth flowing straight forward succinct pious rendering
of writing prompt...This glorious stunning picture provides a magnificent
back-drop to salient message of scribes acrostic verbiage. Good luck in
the contest. teafor2

    Thank you dearest Roy, I thought that an acrostic poem had to be one word for each letter but someone just told me I could write an entire line...so I might change it.

    Oh I got a duplicate response?
reply by the author on 16-Mar-2024
    Well, I checked the contest rules and they show a word and using only the first letter for one word... but I saw other contest entries an they have a line of words...So I am confused...Oh well, we will see how it turns out..
reply by royowen on 16-Mar-2024
    They?ll probably be disqualified
reply by the author on 16-Mar-2024
    I do not think so... I say this because about a year ago I read on eexactly like this and I meantioned to the writer that I believed it was incorrect and she said she was just going to leave it..And, quess what Ro, she won...Totally unfair... Did you have time to look at the rules and poem they show as a description... Maybe I am wrong??

    Maybe

Good day! I am not a poet but I can tell you that your Bible acrostic has a lot to say. Understanding his teachings and believing will bring us to everlasting salvation.

Absolutely, you must remember to include God or there is no understanding salvation, Mystery Author!
Those who do not pretend to know God, the Heavenly Father, cannot possibly know Jesus. And Jesus is the light and the way, because this Son shines His light that is the only way to salvation.
Nice job on this, Mystery Author!!
