Monocrostic (Birthday of Sheila Mae Villanueva)
Forever legacy of our Daddy’s faith
Asserts his trust in the Lord’s authority
Tenaciously props his fatherhood* triumphs
Hoisting home midst hardships toward heavenly hope
Earnest to lead our family so eagerly
Readily showing love midst discipline regard
Surely, he is blest Mama’s darling and sweetheart…
Director --- our human coach and driver dearest
Anchoring us, blending well truths and mercy acts
Yeah, he’s not perfect; yet his best is God’s “Yes.”
*Proverbs 17:6 Children's children are the crown of old men; and the glory of children are their fathers.

Sponsored by Brian Strand; judged on 6/3/2021.
Empowered with life, blest with growth enabling
Asserting the Creator's* wondrous acts

Triumphantly nurtured by Sovereign touch
Haven temporarily for the hopeful, bound to heaven.
*Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.

Double acrostic
Edited on January 30, 2022
God but a word, unless felt in our heart
Ingrained prejudice, makes us feel apart
Verily, through surrender, our prayers start
Inviting Gods grace, to fill us within
Night and day, He cleanses feral toxins
Guiding us, we feel His touch on our skin
Grace in-pours; there is no separation
One with oneness, each breath meditation
Dwelling in heart, vibrant is our silence
Living thus in divine entwined parlance
Yielding to love; life a celebration
Grace us with your embrace: our entreaty
Remove dark voids and our impurity
Acts, words and thoughts, let each with love align
Clear light of truth, please to our mind assign
Ensconced in Your arms for eternity

Form: Vertical Monocrostic
R-ight decision is made,
H-aving pleased the Almighty;
E-vil deeds are left behind,
A-cts that are good give glory.
C-orrect choice is reached,
O-bliterating the wrong ways;
L-et hate and anger fade,
L-ove and faith give praise.
A-llow your heart to trust,
D-oubting not the true salvation;
O-n the fourth of July, make the right decision.
