Karen Jones Poet Acrostic

Tutoyer

Taught to be formal with handshake
Unique circumstances at the workplace
Turned us into allies and friends 
One for all all for one we blend
Yes we both joined the union
Even went to worship had communion 
Respect and love like family reunion

CayCay Godwin January 29, 2026 at 9:30 AM Feels as though you wrote it with a certain person in mind. It is most sweet, and touching. Thank you for teaching me a new word, yepper, I had to look it up, well, I wanted to look it up. If inspired by someone, I hope you gave them a copy.

Hugs CayCay!

Daniel Henry Rodgers January 29, 2026 at 8:55 AM Dear Karen, I love how formality slowly melts into fellowship, and shared work becomes shared life. It is that suttle shift from handshake to heart-shake, where respect deepens into something that feels almost like family. Amen! Winter Blessings, Karen, Daniel Karen Jones January 29, 2026 at 10:36 AM You put that so eloquently Daniel thank you and Winter Blessings returned!
