Line Gauthier Poet Acrostic

The Things I Love

Creating a romantic poem in the streets of Rome
Reading a book tucked away in a comfy nook
Eating ice cream in the middle of my dream
Arriving on time when it didn’t cost a dime
Traveling to exotic places to meet new friendly faces
Invigorating spa while drinking margaritas through a straw
Visiting an art gallery instead of laboring for my salary
Inventing clever toys to give away to girls and boys
These are just a few of the many things I love 
You should see me when I’ve had a beer dangling from my chandelier

Pat Adams January 22, 2019 at 4:13 PM I like this a lot! Especially the IVY. Spa and margaritas sound good although we usually have Bud Coppers. I've never been to an art gallery but I'd agree, about anything is better than laboring for your salary! Last line tops it off. Well done my friend!...........pat Line Gauthier January 23, 2019 at 5:08 AM Thank you so much, Pat, for your most appreciated visit and compliment.
