Evades every evil equally

Opts out of oral offenses

Needs niceness, no negativity

Adventurous, amicable, appreciative

NaPoWriMo Day 23 Prompt: write a poem about a particular letter of the alphabet

For today’s prompt I kind of adjusted it a bit and chose to use more than one letter so to fit into an Acrostic form and used my own name to fit my characteristics (as I see them to be) describing the words of each letter.

And….since I have an artistic side I was led to create the poem into a personalized alphabet art acrostic name wall hanging using some of my various original alphabet art images.

Poem Dweller

Book with letters flowing out

Today

I live in a dictionary

With words as house mates

We’re building

Together

A poem

Called Meta

Composed of verses

It alphabetically speaks

In words

Who Am I ?

I am always surrounded by many books.
I have letters and decimals in my day.
I am here to happily help one who looks.
I am always surrounded by many books.
Very often I meet readers, writers and cooks.
I love what I’m doing. I want to stay.
I am always surrounded by many books.
I have letters and decimals in my day.

Victim-Victor?

Victim VictorThere are two choices—which will you choose?
Your choice makes a difference—either you win or you lose.

In these two words—you make a choice to be,
Bound by one or by one set free.

Victim or Victor–which one are you?
The difference is in letters of two

A mentality of ” I’m” A mentality of “Or”
What do you say is at your core?

Are you a Victim or Victor? The choice is yours today
What will you think—What will you say?
