I think they would like my poem live each moment. It is not an acrostic but I think it would be a great message for them.

You're welcome Lewis and please tell those young men and women I said thank you very much and I'm happy that they liked it. I encourage them to write Acrostics they are fun to write.

Thank you Anne-Marie for quite possibly the sweetest and kindest comment I have ever received.
