Here's my sad little attempt--first time so don't laugh, O.K.? Besides, I'm only taking this class for non-credit.

All the words I have to say
Come in most peculiar ways.
Read only what you must
Or your eyes might deceive your trust.
So if you wonder what
To believe, just look closer, but
In the
Column on the left, you?ll find the answer...duh!

Hey, another non-credit stu.! Good deal, I feel better already.
But hey, get good at this and we could become commissioned poets, write anything they ask.
Yuk, yuk.
(Second one doesn't seem any easier, tho, dang it!)

Gene,
Sorry, I was completely straight-faced until the last line when I lost it on your Duh! comment. In fact, I'm still giggling, it really struck my funny-bone! Seriously though, I think your acrostic is simply duhlightful (couldn't help myself) and you deserve an A!

U Gene,
I really loved the humor in this one. My fingers wanted to type Homer because of the Duh. But it is an expressive word. I also liked that you used acrostic as the word. On to level two.

Thanks everyone,

This is fun, but it can also be mind boggling.

Kethry--
Level Two? I didn't pay for the materials--I'm only a non-credit student, remember? I only have Microsoft Acrostic Version 2.0 - heh, heh
