T-he haven of beauty with its brightest tree- flowers strewn in bloom, H-ailing as masterpiece in one’s heart overwhelmed in deep admiration; A-pril and May are chanting in triumphs claiming their grandest season, I-n kaleidoscopic colors arching a warmest welcome to every nation. L-et your tarried gaze saunters for a while, A-nd inhale the most scrumptious fragrance in squiggled file; N-uzzle on their petals as you close your eyes, D-ream a dream that is never elusive in your life. ©2014by Leonora Galinta April 27, 2014/12.20pm Second Place Contest: A poem you have not entered in contest #2 Judged: 6/12/2014 Sponsor: Dearest Poet Linda/PD

I truly enjoyed this Acrostic very much. I also agree with Paul Callus's Review. And I must add, I am a fan of THAI language! It's so good. I bet there's awesome Poetry written in Thai too. One of the Top 10 Asian languages indeed!!! Congrats on this win and Beautiful Poem!

Good morning, afternoon, my sweet, sweet sister.... I miss you, thank you for the surprise visit. Much love and enjoyment. This is one of the best acrostic out there. A beautiful, painting of Thailand, a dream place. I imagine, to fall in love with such a place. You describe her, with much peace & serenity. The visions of Thailand, I have, are what you find in movies. I like the way you expressed the opening letter T. A haven of beauty with its brightest tree. In a way I feel, as if you were describing yourself. So beautiful... Love reading a new one from you my BFF.... always and forever. sis, and bff... Linda

I am familiar with many of these lovely blooms as we have many here in Hawaii. Your poem celebrates spring so wonderfully Leonora. I hope to visit Thailand one day In the spring or fall. I can almost breathe in the fragrant scents. Mahalo
