Choirangel, Thank you so very much my dear sweet niece, both for the applause and your lovely words. This was my first attempt at the shadow acrostic and it was so nice to be able to do it for my AP daughter. I'm very happy that you enjoyed it and yes they are unique.
Love you always, Auntie Joyce
-
this was different to me LOL I have never seen an acrostic quite like this and I think its unquely different if that makes sense LOL, keep up the awesome poetry here.
-
run, Thank you very much for the applause and your lovely words. The acrostic would always capitalize the first letter of each sentence as well as bolding it. I chose to capitalize the last also since it was a shadow or mirror effect. I'm very happy that you enjoyed it. Love and blessings for you, today and always. Joyce
-
Creative
I love the uniqueness! The capitalization was a great way to emphasize what you wanted to get across... I really liked it. -
asiangirl, Thank you so much for the wonderful comment, I'm very happy that you enjoyed this. Karis is a sweet daughter and a joy to have in the family. Love and blessings for you, today and always.

Wonderful poem.This is carefully written and its amazing.Great job.
-
Puppydog, Thank you so much for the lovely comment. I am so happy that you enjoyed my write for my newest AP daughter.
This was really fun, but I wish she had a different name. Those tough letters made the shadow hard to do.
Love and blessings for you, today and always. Joyce

A WONDERFUL POEM
This is lovely, I enjoyed this very much -
Kitty,

One love,

Jessica, Thank you for coming by and reading as well as leaving me with your inspiring words. This did take a lot of patience as I chose a tough name to do my first Shadow Acrostic for. I saw one very recently and said I have to do this. So it was for my newest AP daughter that I did this tribute. You're very welcome and I will be stopping by to read more of your work. I'm just trying to finish up a write for a contest at the moment. Love and blessings for you, today and always. Keep smiling, you never know who's watching. Joyce
-
Interesting!
This was great! Looks difficult to write something like. It would frustrate the crap out of me to be so confined with my writing. But I admire your patience and talent to do so! Thanks again by the way for all the encouragement. You keep it up too! -
Karis, Thank you for coming into my life. I wanted to do something special for you and this is what came out. I'm so happy that you love it. I think we have both been blessed, that works both ways. I have a huge smile on my face right now after seeing your words. I have found a wonderful extended family in here and you my little one are the newest addition to it. I'll always be here for you. Thank you for making me so happy.
Lots of love, Mom xoxoxoxo -

-
angel, Thank you so much for the lovely comment. I am waiting for her to see it. I sent her an IM with a link to it. I don't think she has been on. Last time she was here she mentioned PC problems. I'm so happy that you enjoyed this and I have a big smile after seeing all the positive response to this, my first Shadow Acrostic. Love and blessings for you my friend, today and always. Joyce
-
Awwww very sweet piece this is, my friend! I'm sure your AP daughter is smiling BIGLY with this piece! Much enjoyed!
-
Dee, Thank you so much for the applause and the lovely words you gave to me. It is quite a compliment. This wasn't easy due to the letters I had to work with. I love Acrostics and they normally come very easy to me, this was the toughest one I've ever done. Thank you again for your words of praise. Love and blessings for you my friend, today and always. Joyce
-
Pam, I had not heard of it either. I just saw one the other day while reading and it hit me like a ton of bricks. I just knew I had to do one. Thank you so much for the applause and your lovely words. So complimentary!!! It is way cool to find the new forms to experiment with.
I'll say one thing, my new AP daughter had a tough name to work with here. LOL 
Thank you again for your praise, you know how much it means coming from you. Love and blessings for you my dear friend, today and always.

Thjis is truly a fine acrostic, sunny day. I've done some acrostics and enjoy doing them but have never tried one where both the beginning and the end of each line reflect the acrostic. I think that would be rather difficult but you did it beautifully
You've done a wonderful job with this one and should be proud of it..as should your AP daughter
Dee
-
Oh WOW. I LOVE this. NOW I have to go and try one.
This is excellent.
So cool.
I have never heard of this type of acrostic before. I love when you go experimenting. See all the cool things you find? ~Pam
-
Shancy, Thank you so much for the applause and the lovely comment. It is quite a compliment you give to me here. This was challenging only for the fact that the letters I had to use made it tough. I love the Acrostics and I just read one of these recently and knew I had to attempt it. It appears I have done a decent job of it. My daughter has not been on since I posted this today, I can't wait for her to see it. I'm getting more excited now that I'm getting more and more praise for it. Always an inspiration, again I thank you. Love and blessings for you my friend, today and always. Joyce
-
Oh my goodness, what a magificent job you've done here. How talented you are. I must say I am very impressed. Your daughter must be pleased beyond blushing! I love it. Shancy.
-
Sis, Thank you so much for the lovely comment. They certainly are a fun form to write. Karis didn't make my first attempt at a Shadow Acrostic very easy with that pen name of hers. LOL
It was a great challenge and I'm so happy that you enjoyed it Linda. Love and blessings for you sis, today and always. Joyce
-
Joyce I love this stlye, may have to try this myself..lol
Acrostics are fun to do and shadow will make it that much more inspiring.. lovely tribute to my neice.. thank you for sharing as always Love ya sis..Linda -
Nena, Thank you so much for the lovely comment. It is a wonderful compliment. I'm so happy that you enjoyed this and I only hope that Karis will like it as much as everyone seems to so far. Love and blessings for you my friend, today and always. Joyce
-
Lion, Thank you so much for the lovely comment. I do love the acrostics and trying this style of it was great. My daughter made it very tough with those letters in her name. LOL They are so fun to write though. I have done many Acrostics now, non-rhyming, rhyming, palindrome and now the shadow. Awesome. Thank you again. Love and blessings for you my friend, today and always. Joyce
-
Grams, Thank you so much for your lovely comment. It is quite a compliment coming from such a wonderful poet. Joy, you always make my heart smile. Love and blessings for you my dear sweet grams, today and always. Joyce
-
Reenie, Thank you so much for the lovely compliment. It was quite challenging only because of the letters in my daughter's name. LOL She just wanted to make it tough on mom.
I'm sure with your talent you could do one of these. Acrostics are not as hard as people believe them to be. Love and blessings for you my friend, today and always. Joyce
-
Vickie, This was very challenging. My new daughter didn't make my first attempt at a Shadow Acrostic easy with those letters in her name. LOL It was fun though. I do love the Acrostics and this was the best to try. Thank you so much for the applause and your words of praise. A very lovely compliment you paid me here. You are a blessing my friend.
Love and blessings for you, today and always. Joyce
-
This is an awesome work Joyce... very creative and well written. Thank you for sharing such beautiful work with me and for the wonderful gift of your ever creative pen. Blessed be dear heart, Nena.
-
Great job with your first shadow acrostic! They're hard, aren't they? Great tribute to something you clearly love, Joyce!
-
Oh my, this is very impressive, granddaughter Joyce. Very impressive indeed. I'm sure your newest addition will be really thrilled with it. Talk again soon. love grams
-
this is aqn accomplishment ( something I do not think I could do) .It is as well a wonderful tribute to a new member of this family and I am sure that she will be flatterd:0
reenie
-
You are motivated by challenge, aren't you girl??? I have seen this once before but didn't know the name of it-shadow acrostic makes perfect sense. Boy if I didn't think regular acrostics was enough of a challenge-I certainly think this one is.
I am convinced there is no form you couldn't do and do well. This was a trophy winner, even if it wasn't in a contest. It's almost as good as your best poem you ever wrote-but that one will be impossible to top-hehe!!! ♥ vj -
Janet, I know she will love your comment as much as I did.
Thank you so much for the applause and the words from your heart. I'm a young 45 but this Goth thing has me stumped, I'm going to have to look into it. LOL Grams I'm sure will be as happy as I am with the words you just gave to my new daughter. Thank you again from the bottom of my heart. Love and blessings for you cousin, today and always. Joyce
-
Navdeep, The form itself isn't that tough, it was the letters I had to use that made this one a little tougher than it would normally be. It was my first and I thank you for the applause and your wonderful comment. Again you praise me leaving me humbled by your words.
Thank you for taking the time to read about my new AP daughter. I loved your newest and I want to see more. And you are the bestest!!!
Love and blessings for you my friend, today and always.
Joyce
-
Anybody related to Grams is welcome and beloved by me. Tell her I am her friend and us being cousins I guess aunt. Oh my I'm an auntie. I better get my 26 on. I have lots of younger AP cousins who are like my nieces already so tell her to drop by is she needs an ear or a friendly chat. I used to be a Goth and if she's that then I understand antiauthoritarianism too. Everyone, including me, just wants some of Grams pixie dust love. Ciao now. Great write.
-
OMIGOSH!!!!!!!
This is brilliant! This looks like such a tough form but as usual, your work was lovely (or should I say, 'bestest'? ). You managed to do it wonderfully!
Congrats to you. Keep writing.
-
well check you out, trying yet ANOTHER form!!! You are so talented. I'm glad that you shared this with me. Congrats on another brilliant poem!
-
Desires, Thank you so much for the applause and the lovely comment. I'm so happy you enjoyed this. I love doing Acrostics and I recently saw a Shadow one done by a member of FTH. It prompted me to write one. I chose some tough letters here for my first, with my daughter's pen name. LOL Love and blessings for you, today and always. Joyce
-
Beret, Thank you so much for the applause and the lovely comment. I'm so happy that you enjoyed this and I hope my new daughter will also. Love and blessings for you, today and always. Joyce
-
Di, Thank you so much for the applause and the lovely comment. This wasn't easy as I chose some tough letters to use here. LOL I hope Karis finds it to be a sunny day. Thank you again for the compliment. I also hope you are getting your life back in order after the catastrophic flooding that you recently endured. Love and blessings for you my friend, today and always. Joyce
-
Beautiful
Oooooo this is really good. . I've never heard of a shadow acrostic. . . But then again I don't do form poetry (cause I can't). I hope she likes it You did a good job here
</3Desires -

-
