WELCOME TO FOS – CLICK BANNER FOR FORM EXAMPLE

For this challenge, write a poem using the form presented and your fellow Starlite poets will vote for the one they like the best! The form is:

Acrostic-


An acrostic poem is a type we've all seen! It is simply a poem in which the first letter of each line spells out a word or phrase. Start by writing your word or phrase vertically, and then build out your poetry lines from each letter - either rhymed or not.

Please click the banner above for an example of the form!

Simply write a poem using the form above. The winner of FOS is decided by all Starliters. The Host - Bronze Dragon - presents a new form each week. Challenge ends on July 21st or upon reaching 15 poems entered.


FOS is a voting challenge - please return at the end of the challenge to vote for the poem using the form that you liked best. Any entries not following the form given may be removed by the Host prior to voting.

Thanks, and Have Fun!
