Craig,

May I heat some water for your tea? You really are talented
at the acrostic form...well, probably every form. I like the
way you added end rhymes...which you say is your style.

Askance and "poetry pants" was cool. Curses and verses was too.
Shall I list them all? Panic and manic...that had to be the best pair
right there:)

You did a great job on the potlatch challenge,
Linda

Hahaha! You have personality with this one :) Love the picture and the message. You have a natural feel so it doesn't feel like an acrostic. Well done! Are you not entering the site acrostic contest with this?

I don't think so. I've already got an entry in, but I think this may have done better lol

Thanks Joy :)

An acrostic in rhyming couplets, and a deft attack on the originator of this acrostic malarkey. Looks like you are on track and rolling along.

This is hysterical!
Great job! :)

so funny and sweet. I truly love it and I can picture Phyllis laughing as she reads this. You ran with this challenge and suddenly all the places in the Acrostic contest are filling up. Thank you for the happiness you just gave me.

This is very good--but there is no 'M' in writing addict. The rhyme was great and helped with the flow. I would take out the "M" line although it is cute. Good work, my friend~Debbie

Hi my friend... just loved this very clever Acrostic, my friend. And you even have it all rhyming... well done.

Just one very small spag (I think!)

scribbes and curses

Should 'scribbes' by 'scribes' or 'scribbles'?
Or is scribbes I am not yet familiar with the the poetic world?

Cheers
Marijke

Comment from Gloria ....

Excellent

Ha, you sucked up to Phyllis and in my world that is BEST. I wish I would've thought of that, but you know how crazy the mind is under time constraints.

So what were you wearing when you wrote this lovely acrostic? Hmmmmmmmmm?

Super job my dear.
