Summer Acrostic Poem

in Summer Poems

Sun shines on your skin and mine
Until it sets way after nine.
Memories made with a cold drink in hand.
Moments to cherish with feet in the sand.

Sun shines on your skin and mine
Until it sets way after nine.
Memories made with a cold drink in hand.
Moments to cherish with feet in the sand.
Everyone laughing, smiles on every face.
Remember the moments, those were the days.

Turn up the music, sing it out loud.
Indigo skies, no sign of a cloud.
Mutter the words that no one will know.
Everlasting memories; where does time go?

Father's Day Acrostic Poem

in Father's Day Poems

How would it be without your dad?

Fathers are fun - and serious too!
And you learn more from them than you do at school.
Think of all the good times you've had.
How would it be without your dad?
Everything would be harder with no mentor for growth.
Reflect on the man who loves you the most.
Soon will come the day for you to fill his shoes.

Do you think your dad would accept an excuse?
Always try your best, that's what he would say.
Yes, think of your dad on this Father's Day!

A Family
- By Patricia Biddle
- Published by Family Friend Poems March 2012 with permission of the Author.
My name is Patricia, and I am the eighth of nine children. My parents taught us growing up that God and family are there for you when no one else is. As a result of our upbringing, we are a very close knit family. My family has stood by my side through the good times and the bad, as I have been there for them. Without their support I am not sure I would be where I am today. My family is comprised of not only my parents, brothers and sisters, but also my true and loyal friends.

A Cry For Help
- By Samar Alkhudairi
- Published by Family Friend Poems March 2011 with permission of the Author.
This is an acrostic poem spelling out the word "BULLYING." I am 12 years old, and the fact that I used to be bullied is really a sign that I have great empathy for those who still constantly deal with such the struggle keeping their heads high and telling themselves, "It's just words," or "I'll get over it." Bullying takes an enormous toll on you when you are facing it constantly. "A Cry For Help" is truly from the heart and everyone should know.
