Magnificent (Double Acrostic)

M ystifying covers forM

A ll  Nature's green and faunA

G racing thoughts excitinG

N ew life,  as Curiosity is giveN

I nvigorating sights relieve all ennuI

F illing one with the wonder oF

I nscribed greatness there,  and I

C onsider them wondrous bric-a-braC

E very bit of Beauty's facE

N ourishing one's soul agaiN

T hey all contain the Maker's message senT.











Note:  If you look close enough on the leaf,  there is a hairy caterpillar
camouflaged on it,  and this is one of nature's wonders that fascinate me endlessly.

Amazing style, this double acrostic is. I have to try it too one day.
You are very good at it Cynthia. Natures green fauna can be so overwhelming and precious. I saw the hairy catapillar too! amazing photo.

Lovely double acrostic. Very well worded.
I looked very carefully, but I'm afraid I didn't see the catapillar.

Thank you Marie - it is in the center -the leaf's vein is quite different from the caterpillar's "spine".

I think I found it; I'm still not sure.

Well done. This is a form I particularly enjoy.

Thank you Michael. The photo inspired the theme for this poem.

I did look carefully before I found it. Lovely how nature can do some things so well.
