Gillian - A Birthday Acrostic

Giant heart, relentless kindness to all she imparts 
Intelligent, bookish, fashion-smart,
Leader, plants her trail with dedicated grace and flair—so you'll follow.
Laughter, as tuneful as the airs of larks or swallows.
Inquisitive, indicator of a legal luminary,
Admirable looks and acuity sounds in sharp commentary.
Neoteric, check the artistry in her stare; note the future at the tip of her fingers.

Gillian!

Don't give up, Trina - you've got talent, you were, I think, born with a pen inside you that urged you to use it. You'll only get better and better. In the wonderful Acrostic you used words I'll have to look up! Acrostics are such fun word puzzles, just like the Abecedarian challenges (I managed to write one for the Afterglow contest.) Pleasure meeting you .... CayCay

Hey there! Thank you, CayCay. Acrostics are fun. I have been writing off and on for a while, but more consistently over the past six months. I am trying different things. Trying to write more often, read more often, and trust my instincts more often. Come again anytime!
