Acrostic Poetry Challenge - Ring II

1 Conversation

The Acrostic Poem banner

The Acrostic Poem has been a long-standing challenge, mainly between Bel and PedanticBarSteward. However, we've decided to open up the idea to anyone who would like to take part, as a regular poetry challenge.

The word chosen each time is the Telegram Game's current word, so if you join in or subscribe to the telegram game you'll know as soon as it's announced. When you've completed your poem, submit it by posting to a new thread below, and we'll put the best of them together in the next issue.

Have fun!

Editor's note: Yes, we know we had 'Ring' week before last. We liked it so much we did it again. Call it our 'Ring Cycle'1. – DG

Ring II

PedanticBarSteward
Round, expensive – worn for life,
Identify men with trouble and strife,
Now that divorce has become the norm,
Gratuitous signs from my hand have gorn.
smiley - birosmiley - birosmiley - biro

1You don't like that joke? PedanticBarSteward's poem was too good to miss. He was Lord of the Rings. Take that.
