An acrostic poem is a kind of poem where the first letter of each line spells out a word or message — usually going downward.
Key points:
-
You pick a word or phrase (like "LOVE", "FRIEND", "NATURE").
-
Each line of the poem starts with a letter from that word.
-
The lines can be about the word itself.
Example:
Let’s say the word is "SUN":
Shining brightly in the sky
Uplifting everyone with its warmth
Never fails to rise each day
➡ If you read the first letters vertically — S U N — it spells "SUN".
