these are very pretty, Jan. Love the picture. it is cool that you are doing a contest. Do you mean for us to choose ONE Of the words and use it as our title, for example: Snow Acrostrain(however it is spelled). Just checking to be sure! I bet it will fill fast!

Jan Allison
Date: 10/22/2015 3:24:00 PM

Thanks Andrea - yes do snow wind or rain as an acrostic and use the quatrian form with 2 lots of rhyming lines - have shown my poem on the contest page as an example :-) hugs jan xx
