Weigh well worth of wide vocabulary
Empowering experiences rich,
Intense at times, at times with playful pitch -
Gambol space to trace thoughts fair and free.
However, weight and size of words may be
Wor[l]ds apart when into sense we’d stitch
Or knit together floating concepts which
Represent the seed the knowledge tree
Dreams roots need to reach maturity.
Sage phrases softly shaded may bewitch,
Where letters lengthy linked lose touch, so hitch
Onto emotion’s star, provide true key.
Read and rehearse more than verse second hand, -
THoughts flow through words which share tuned hearts’ wave band.

Interesting to say the least. I had not seen this style before. I had played with something like this when making a list of songs to put on a CD so that the first letters of each song spelled out something. Never thought to try it with a verse or poem. Thanks for entering.

Interesting. I'm not a fan of rhyme or form but this was a particularly good piece. The only flaw I can point out isn't really that much of a flaw at all. "THoughts" should be "Thoughts". Like I said, hardly a flaw.
Thanks for entering and best of luck!

Acrostic Sonnets
The Title Weigh Words Worth is also the acrostic Weigh Words Worth thus, with respect, the TH at the beginning of the final line of the sonnet is IMHO fully justified

I am a fan of alliteration...
ah...you have certainly given me my alliterative fix for this morning. Good work poet.
