F A M I N E  II

(Thousands of children, all over the world, die every day for lack of food) 

Famine:

           Fathomless
 
                       Agony

                            Mercilessly 

                                       Indicating

                                                 Nutrient

                                                       Exhaustion!

My dear Demetrios, I read your poem "Eternal Gratitude". My heart bleeds. And your parents from heaven must be watching proudly and contentedly "This was our dream" . I told you once that you have magic in your heart. Suffering always brings glory. May God bless you and your family in every way!. wow this one is truly word wonder! love manel

How do you write these one word acrostics so effectively? I couldn't have come up with this in a million years! Wow, you are very good at these, especially effective after reading your previous poem, they should be read consecutively! What an amazing piece my friend, Great Work!!
