Acrostics are poems that go down and across. The poems don’t have to rhyme and they can have as many words as you like. You can choose any subject you like, even your own name.

Example:

Crunchy, munchy

Oh, so sweet

Oodles of chocolate and nuts

Kids love them!

I like to eat them hot from the oven

Everyone waits for them to cool

(By: H.Renz)

ROSE (Acrostic Poem)

Red, yellow, pink, even dyed

Obvious beauty for all to admire

Smell so heavenly

Excellent, decorative flower for a centerpiece
