I wanted to do some poems, the kind that are a word displayed vertically with each letter starting a new word. (I've forgotten what they're called , could someone tell me?) See examples below.

So, I ask of you to write some of these too, and to say if you liked mine.

Acrostic Poem. It's a neat trick if you can pull it off. I like your renditions.smcginnis wrote: (I've forgotten what they're called , could someone tell me?)
