"A poet is, before anything else, a person who is passionately in love with language."
- W. H. Auden
Write a poem, where the first letter of the verse in the poem spells out a word you choose, subject, and message. You can go even further: write a poem where each starting letter of the line is a consecutive letter of the alphabet, from A to Z.
In poetry it is called acrostic technique and poets frequently use it while experimenting with their own writing.
Below is an example I did using acrostic technique:
Acrostic allowed animated alignment:
Bright blue bird borrows beautiful barn
“C’mere!” – Coherently cried crow, crawling cowardly!
...
Windy waves widely warned
X-rated xylophone:
“Yuck”- yawned yak
Zoological zodiac zen.
It’s funny what can really come out – no matter how quirky it might look and sound. Fun and humor are those additional spices that make the process of creativity even more enjoyable!
