Essence of You
Masking pains traces, running the races
Across a blank page, painting her rage
Risking love clear, running as rhea
Shining each hour never to sour
Helping folk heal, with loves' anneal
And find's victory, in lifting you, me

Grace gives her, balm, extends other's calm
Returning to care, she'll willingly share
Always  on  call, friendly to all
Catching all those blue, who live with the shoo!
Ever in demand by write of her hand
    like a candy she's sweet and dandy

Bright, looking up, drinking life's cup
Underneath rush has drive to push
Beginning  in you,Phoenix grew too
Battled we three, your write set your free
Lest love spill the plan, your work fine elan
Exceptional as sherry as winkled as peri
So all she can fix, when placed in her mix

Bonnie! a dream, she's peaches and cream
Ever reaches high, and proudly she'll fly
Vixen at times, in tune with her rhymes
Eternally tall and giving her all
Raising a clue, she sticks like Uhu
Lighting the lights, prays through dark nights
Exceptional tush! it gives me a rush
Youngish to cry, for her I would try




Those of us who refuse to risk and grow get swallowed up by life. Patty Hansen.

You've done this wonderfully.  Excellent acrosticizing.

Kethry dear heart okay love met and beautifully matched. I still say it was far too easy for you love, you know how much this means to me. I know you do, and haven't you done it magnificently.
I'm definitely going to have to think of something harder that's all.
You little challenge superstar you

Take care dear heart and you'll see who's done who in. HA!
Love you

dsnyder,
thanks for the fine words of praise!

Poeminister, I would acrosticize for you anyday.

SEA, you're joking right...I've seen the acrostics you do... you make them look easy peasy it's a breezy.

Melissa, Thanks for stopping by, I always appreciate it.

Marsha,
This was really HARD! Really and truly it was! I may have to have a lie down for a week! Don't ask me to do it again love I really can't. My crocodile ate all my paper so I can't do another challenge.

Be well
Kethry
