Jan Allison Poet Acrostic

Notes About The Poem

Sweet Nothings

Snuggling up to me with words that endear
Whispering sweet nothings into my ear
Enchanting words murmured bring me such delight
Encircling my waist you hold me so tight
Tenderly kissing me before its time to say goodnight

Next minute you surprise me and get down on one knee
Open a red velvet box and then you propose to me 
Tears spring to my eyes and I whisper to you
How happy I’ll be when we wed and say ‘I do’
I lovingly look into your sapphire blue eyes
Now we share a kiss, our love we cannot disguise
Gently we embrace, you wrap me in your strong arms
Such a perfect night… I surrender to your charms

Sonia Walker November 21, 2017 at 7:39 PM Jan, a very romantic acrostic poem which not only rhymes but flows beautifully. Congratulations on your placement. ~ Sonia Jan Allison November 22, 2017 at 5:34 AM Thanks Sonia I don't often do rhyming acrostics so I thought it would be a little more challenging especially as I find writing romantic poems so difficult as I much prefer humour:-) hugs jan xx
