Able acrostic artist’s alignment adds air.
Alliteration asks acknowledgement aware,
Bard’s brain bequeaths benchmark billet, blends braid bans blare,
Beware braggarts’ boasts, banality, betrayal backstair.
Classic composition, clear content, compare
Creative couplets, compliment competent care.
Drawing descriptions deftly displayed debonair
Droll doggerel dubbed dextrous, doubts dismayed.  Declare
Entertaining epistle’s extent e’er ensnare
Easy erudition evident everywhere
Fair fancy’s flight futility forbade, fine flair
Flickering forever – feeble fops fade – fan fair.
Great gifts, gainsay gameplay grandiloquent, gross glare,
Gain gleeful guests, greet gallant guy, girl, gent, goad galere.
Here he has honed his heavenly homemade highbrow
Handwritten harvest, handmade harlequinade … how?
Insight inviting idyll irreverent, ifere
Invents ideas intelligent, intent inhere
Judicious jumble joke jest judges jaded jeer,
Joins joyful jingle jamboree jacent jardinière
Kaleidoscopic knowledge knits kaross. Kowtow!
Knight’s kakemono knack karmic kudos. Know
Lines lyrical, lightheartedly linked, laid layer
Liltingly linger, lasting leisure lent lustreware
Mute melancholy! Muse’s masquerade mayor
Master musters magic meter, music made midair
Neat new needlecraft, never negligent ne’er
Neutral, negative nonsense, nonevent nowhere.
Ode’s object - open offering - obeyed order
Onomatopoeia overlayed over
Poetic passions, purposefully pent, prepare
Portrait pasquinade polyvalent poetic pair
Quick-witted quips quell quitters querulent, queer.
Quizmaster quality quite quiets querent. Quair’s
Rhymic reel responsive, readymade, reads rare
Reverberation, readily relaid repair.
Stanzas succinct, shrewd signposts sapient, should share
Such skillful stringing signals softly sent. So spare
The thesis, tested, triumphs, teasing trade that there
Takes time to twin terms taut, taught twined torsade tough to tear
Usage unexpected unpenitent, - unfair?
Unravels uniformity, unpent unaware.
Vitality, vim, vetoed vehement vaporware,
Vivacious verse’s veriloquent vent via vare
When willing writer worked with wonderment where
Weaving worthwhile wordplay wreath while weekend went west ware.
Xylophonic xenagogue xeroxes XX XY,
Xenial xesturgy xenogamy x-rays Xerxes, xanthous Xanthippe
Yet Ylem, Yggdrasil, yug yesterday, - yare
Youth’s yearning yeastier yolk yond yoke, yea!
Zestfully zapping, zooming, zigzagging zany zone
Zen zingaro zealots’ zeitgeist’s zenith, - zephyr’s zing …

WHERE POSSIBLE for the tenth syllable of each line  
the rhyme scheme is aa bb for the first version a b a b for the mirrored version
... ent

and for the twelfth c... fair or care

As this esquisse was attempted as rhyming couplets it can either be read as such A to Z or as A to Z followed by Z to A with only minimal punctuation differences

Enjoy !

    My God! You're irrepressible! Hey, have you seen that paragraph in which the alphabet is written as a diatribe by a crow against a scarecrow? It starts: Hey! Be seedy effigy. Hate shy jacky yellow man, etc.

    Well, if someone was going to get an award for a big mixture, it'd defiantly be you. An alphabatized acrostic with rhyme alliteration... and flow... and whatever else I missed. Thats pretty cool and it shows loads of talent

    The piece, in honesty, really, really bored me in some places, so that would be your wink link right there...

    I still liked this though Thanks for the entry
