Notes About The Poem

Awaiting Loveliness - Acrostic


Awaiting Loveliness - Acrostic


L  Longing for the warmth of springtime days
O  over frigid gloom of wintertime,
V  varied memories come sweetly forth.
E  Etched like a painting by Monet, I see
L  longer, brighter days with springtime sun
I  inviting buds to slowly make debut,
N  nudging dormant trees to hazy green;
E  expressing to have wintertime unfold
S  springtime bliss when waiting earth renews
S  splendid newborn days of loveliness.
