Allpoetry is a wonderful place~ABC Acrostic

Missing image
Allpoetry is a wonderful place
Bringing poets together
Creating poems and stories.
Does it surprise you;
Every time you create one
From you know not where
Giving you pleasure
Happiness galore.
I know it does me!
Joan is my name
Known as angelica.
Love to write about Angels
Making poets happy again.
Nice to feel needed
Opening up my heart,
Passing around my love.
Quietly I fly by their sites
Ready with the angel dust
Sprinkling it generously
To those who need it most.
Up I fly once more
Visiting all my friends,
Wishing all of them well
Xtra love I send to them.
Yes! allpoetry is a wonderful place
Zany! but a fun place to be.

    I think this is a great poem. You've described Allpoetry wonderfully. I don't think there could be any better way to describe it. I think you done a wonderful job with this acrostic. Best wishes and God bless!

    Sorry. It made me giggle a little because it's so different from all the others. Nothing wrong with that, infact, I commend you on a well written piece. Thank you for entering into my contest. Good luck.

    Been writing these many a year Joan, had no idea they had a name, lol I know I told you this. TY for helping me know. AP like many poetry forums is blessed with many Angels hiding between the poems and lines of poems waiting to touch many a heart. A beautiful thought my fine fried.

    Dear leander, before I came to AP I knew nothing of writing poetry, it took me a long time to even begin to, I mostly write from my heart and what I receive from my inspirational writing.I don't call myself a poet, I never have.
    Never give up trying my sweet, we all have a unique style of our own. Have faith in what you write, feel it from the heart, you will be amazed at what you can write. Thank you for your wonderful comment on my ABC Acrostic..yes the letter X is the hardest one to find a word for~Love~anjelica

    Wonderful how you managed to use all the letters of the alphabet in this acrostic, without even letting the poem itself sound forced...(and I disagree with Rose Dark Thorn, the letter X fits well ) there's a wonderful flow in this poem, which brings me to my final words: amateuristic poets as I can only be jealous about all the talents you have...

    very good luck in this contest

    I'm sorry, I cannot find an X word to suit, if you like I will remove it from the contest as Xtra..extra is the only word that fits angelica

    Nice acrostic, though I do have a problem with the word for X, but other than that it was nicely written. Thanks for entering and good luck.

    This is absolutely Heavenly, and written from the quill of an angel's feather, which dropped from her wing. How beautiful this acrostic is my sister, perfect in content, form and measure. You are just so beautful. I feel so blessed that you were one of the very first here to befriend me. I love you JOan. Just stunning. This is for sure a trophy WINNER!!! Blessings to you and yours for the New Year and forever. Youii have given me reasons to smile for the rest of the evening!

    Your Sister/Friend

    Brilliant Poem!

    Joan this is simply wonderful and I love your sparkling background. It's really a blessing to know that you're there with your angel dust sprinkling it on generously to those that need it the most. Thank you for commenting to my poem "Happy New Years To All". I am so happy that you and Damon had a wonderful time eventhough he said that he's no a dancer at all but in virtual reality, you can be anything or anyone you desire to be. I wish you a happy New Year and best of luck to you in the contest. Avril

    This is delightful. I feel a lot like you do. This is a wonderful place, where we are able to let our words flow with ease and comfort. Sometimes there's a snag or two, but that's life and we can overcome the stumbling blocks.
    A wonderful job.

    Great

    That's awesone. And so true. Allpoetry is such a wonderful place, never once have I regretted joining is amazing site. the ABC acrostic would be very difficult to do and I am amazed that you accomplished such a hard task, I would never be able to. Anyway. Keep writing and good luck in the contest. Write more. BYE!

    Well done

    Your light-hearted piece has given me a bit of cheer, and I need it, two of my favorites are leaving AP indefinitely.
    Your angel dust is always welcome on my page.

    Joan, this is a wonderful poem about Allpoetry and the poets here. We are an odd assortment from all parts of the world, and we do make some wonderful friendships--some for life--I think. Yours and mine I feel sure will be one that lasts that long. I hope that you win the contest; you deserve too, because you really did a great job.

    Dear Joan,
    I see Hugh hasn't caught up with this one yet so thought I'd beat him to it.
    You are now telling everything that Hugh already told me about you. I applaud your poem.
    Sincerely, Heathcote.

    Beautiful, Joan. It really is.

    Joan,

    I loved this! I really did. You are great at writing these. Gosh, if I were to write this, I'd have a tough time coming up with... let's say a word that begins with 'z'! I love you so very much and am glad that we met on AP. 's for you always and forever.
