ALWAYSTURTLE (Backwards Acrostic)

ALWAYSTURTLE - Backwards Acrostic


Anything but boring, read her work and you’ll seE
Lovely imagination, see her longing souL
Wistful, she finds a way to show her loving hearT
Ambiguous, she will never turn a deaf eaR
You know immediately, she is impromptU
Strong and bold are the lovely words she does imparT
Truthful, one word to describe her tender feelingS
Unseen forces were chosen to send her my waY
Rejoice as you feel the magic of her aurA
Then relax, sit back and watch her wonderful shoW
Listen and you will hear the sound of her sweet calL
Echoing resplendence, is her soft AriA

Author notes

Turtle, I wanted to try the backwards acrostic and your sweet heart beckoned as I answered the call with these words.
I hope you enjoy my thoughts of you as you bring a smile to sunny day's bright face.

The backwards acrostic is also known as a mirror acrostic.

    Pam, Thank you so much for the applause and the SUPER comment. I know it won't take you hours to come up with something though. I'm very happy you liked this, I had a feeling that you would. The first one I attempted I forgot to check my letter count until I was down to the last 3 lines and realized I had an odd number. LOL I really think you will enjoy this form of the acrostic. There are so many of them it is great. Love and blessings for you my dear friend, today and always. Joyce

    Jamie, Thank you so much for the applause and your lovely words that are so complimentary. This was my first backwards acrostic. If the letters are easy to work with then they are not hard to do at all. I am surprised at how much people will say OMG I don't know how you do that. I also have you to thank for the wonderful backgrounds you have created for all of us to use as we see fit. I think this one was perfect for Turtle's poem. Love and blessings for you my friend, today and always.

    Vickie, Thank you so much for the applause and your loving words so complimentary. I am truly humbled. You do have this disease, I see it in your words all the time my dear friend. I do try to see the good in everyone Vickie, life is far too short not to do that. Now, as for the gifted thing. LOL I don't think I am that talented. I know I have improved since I started writing last July, but it is not something I was born with. I'm so flattered by your compliments that my mouth is still wide open. I pray your weekend will be just as great with your new grandaughter.
    Remember, spoil, spoil, spoil!!!!! Love and blessings for you my dear friend, today and always. If we do decide to move as far south as Texas you know I will be looking you up. Joyce

    If you lived in my town, we'd be great friends. You'd be my best friend next to Samplette. I don't think you ever have a bad thought about anyone-you're positive attitude is contagious. It's just the kind of disease I want to catch.
    Not only are you the nicest person, but you are matched with equal talent. I don't think you realize how gifted you are-but you continually continue to amaze me with your talents. I pray you have a super dooper weekend!!! Blessings~vj
