Snowflakes: Acrostic Poetry

December 24, 2007 - Acrostic Poetry
(Unrhymed verse in which the letters of the topic are written vertically letter by letter, each of which is used to construct a phrase or a sentence that describes the topic.)

Snowflakes:

Snowflakes form, and

No two are alike with

Origami shapes, as

Whispers of crystals and

Flowers of ice fall from the sky.

Lightly floating

Aloft in the breeze,

Kaleidoscopes of sparkling,

Effervescent crystals

Soften the landscape of Earth.
