Confidence

C omfortable in own skin

O ptimism enclosed within

N egativity born without

F riendliness oozes out

I ndependent and content

D azzles with joyful intent

E xuberant and energetic

N oticeably magnetic 

C aptivating and compelling

E nchanting and foretelling

A nice flow to this poem which is not so easy to do with an acrostic... Very nicely penned, Cecilia!

what a wonderful tribute Cecilia - the one thing I have developed through my writing is confidence! I have given a talk on creative writing to the 6th formers last September and will be doing another 2 when we go back in 2 weeks time - something I never ever would have dreamed possible but the head of English is so thrilled with my progress and thinks I can inspire the students:-) Hugs jan xx

WOW Cecilia - Writing an Acrostic is a difficult challenge as it is but RHYMING one is even more so...Wonderful and loving tribute to a VERY lucky guy and by the way, I know of a talented, elegant poet from Canada who this applies to as well...

Great acrostic! I like how you were able to make a fluid but concise about your perception and impressions on confidence with the limitations of acrostic. Kim

This is lovely and teeming with positivity. Before I came to the end line, I thought you were referring to yourself! That's how people become when inner and outer freedom are gained. // paul

Actually Paul this does describe me as well, I been reading a lot on how the power of positivity and how positive attracts positive, it seems to be working, I been feeling light on my feet. Thanks for the thoughtful comment. Hugs
