Acrostic Poems
Acrostics are easy to write and simple in format. The name of the
person, object, place and so on is written vertically down the
left hand side of the page. Each letter is capitalised and
becomes the first letter of the word beginning each line. The
words used should describe the person, object or place in a
positive way. Each line may comprise a word, a phrase or a
thought that is continued on to the next line. Acrostics require
writers to choose the best words and the best sentence
construction within the limitations imposed by the form.
An example of an Acrostic Poem:
| Kangaroos Around in the Night, Grazing And eating, Racing Over paddocks Or Sleeping after jumping. |
