acrostic plus

G rumbling won’t improve your mood
R emember to count all blessings good
O pportunities abound to appreciate
W onders around you, small and great
I nterest shown to those you love
N oticed here and up above
G od cares about heart attitude

if you find yourself doing life sol O
to meet new friends presents a goa L
pursue that hobby you never trie D
take the time to enjoy the rid E
you aren’t getting any younge R


Lillian proposes a puzzle poem so here’s an acrostic plus for dVerse poets today…

    Love this acrostic plus approach to growing older! Most especially the reminder for someone who is alone, one need not be alone. The final statement gives some humor to the message. Well done!
