Enjoyed the tongue-in-cheek humor of your poem (as the site limits everyone to only posting two works per day). You've accepted the gauntlet with grace and flair.

Fun read and great style how each line flows together, rather than seeming forced for the sank of the opening line's letter. Good luck in your quest.

Well done with this excellent entry in this acrostic poetry contest, you must be referring to Dean Kuck, but in general terms to perhaps the winner of this acrostic contest, well done, good luck, blessings, Roy

A clever Acrostic on a topical subject. Good appropriate picture. Reading through it as a piece of prose it makes sense and not at all contrived to meet the challenge of an acrostic style poem. I wish you luck in both the acrostic contest and your race to the top LOL. Warm regards Dorothy

I can relate to this challenge. Back in 2010, I got caught up in this challenge. When I realized that I was compromising quality for quantity I quit and left the site. I vowed not to get wrapped up in all that this year. I'll write at my own pace and give each story and chapter my best. For those who want to give it a go, I say good luck.
The points you make in this poem are valid and come across well.
Michael

    Hi Michael, Thanks for your review,, and I thought it might me a fun look at this whole challenge. I doubt that I will be able to even post the required poems to get anywhere the top. Like you I would rather write for enjoyment than competition. This is supposed to me a tongue in cheek poem .. Plus I can't afford it LOL Cheers for a good year of writing anyway Cheers

You have written a poem that follows the rules and indicates a bit of ambition and pride. Good luck in the "race". It is good to have something exciting at the first of the new year and I think your poem shows that you are caught up in it. Well done.
