The first time that I read this poem, I was unaware of what an acrostic poem was. But, now I know! This is an excellent acrostic, Jake. I love how you were able to write this poem using only your titles. Not to many poets could do that. Terrific work!...I have recently written my first acrostic poem. And, to my surprise it won the acrostics contest! It is titled, "October"...Thanks for the great comments. I hope you are well! :)

This is awesome! Love how you used only your poems title. They flowed together like magic. Fantastic write! I used 24 of my titles in 12 lines, but didn't make the contest, was fun to write though and it's a funny read, called 'Nun Betty on Trial'. Congrats on your win! Hugs

I recognize most of these great titles! Excellent poem of poems, Jake! I have written one similar to this titled, "I Am En-Titled To Love". Please, read it sometime....Thank you for commenting so kindly on my poem, "I Want To Be Yours". I wouldn't be a winner without the advice from great poets like yourself! Hugs to you, Kelly

Andrea, sweetheart, I never thought to enter this anywhere. My intent was to use some of my titles in an acrostic. I never intended there to be any continuity here. Amazing how things turn out..... Thanks Love... Jake
