Graduation was special. I graduated from acting school in January 2016. So I completely appreciate your poem. I ran out of 6-stars. Forgive me. Well thought out and nicely written poem. You made acrostic writing seem simple. Keep up the great work.

Thank you sunnilicious. I wish you well in acting. I was once on the Opera Stage and now I teach wonderful students. May you find your way.

I really enjoy your graduation acrostic Judy. Especially the advice to view the world with pink eyeglasses. I mean really, why not? It makes a lot of sense to look on the bright side.

You were also smart and entered this into the contest too! So best wishes to you. It's a good one.

Thank you Gloria, I wanted to ask a favor. When I first came to Fan Story I submitted the beginning of my Book " Buttons". It was well received but many people pointed out to me that I was suppose to submit it one chapter at a time. The first one I submitted was at least 8 chapters long. The people who read encouraged me to keep writing, Phyllis was one of them. She said she couldn't stop reading. I asked Fan story if I could re submit it one chapter at a time but they explained that that was against the rule. Now I am continuing the story. I put up the next chapter ( Kept ir readiably short). I am also going to promote the beginning again once I get enough member dollars. If you get a chance could you read it. I so appreciate your time.

Judy, this is a good acrostic poem for the contest.
Lots of good advice here to graduates. It is
wonderful when young people take notice of the
older lonely people. Good luck in the contest.

Jusylee,

You have composed an outstanding acrostic entry poem!
I particularly liked your thoughts in the "than" part...giving
to others, keeping in touch with parents.

Your presentation is certainly colorful and your great advice
is sent out in fluid poetic form.

Linda

Hi Judy,
This is so cute. "Always call your Mum and Dad not just on Christmas eve." How wonderful.
We all went along the work or job line but you have written about home values.
A very unique poem.
Brenda:))x

Hi Jusylee,

Thanks for joining in on the Poetry Potlatch Acrostic challenge this week. You have listed many key points for the graduate to make their lives a success. This list is comprehensive and certainly illustrates your idea of giving more than they take.

Keep up the great work!
