Acrostic ~ Name Poem for Tumbleweed

Missing image
Touch gentle Souls with
understanding &
memories are woven with
beauty's Intent which
lingers long after Day is done ~
eyes shine with
wonder as you
embrace the Infinite & sing the
eternal
dream...

    Hi, I'm new around here. I had to look up what "acrostic" meant, and found out that it is a verse in which certain letters such as the first in each line form a word or message.

    I think you did a great job! This flows so smoothly from one line to the next. It made me want to try it myself.
