An Acrostic Decima for Potlatch Poetry
Harry Hippo by damommy

He hardly has a single hair,
and Harry doesn’t seem to care,
recalling there’s no need to brush.
Responding to all those who stare,
yet trying hardest not to blush.
 
How happy he lives life with flair,
indeed, it’s known most everywhere.
Predictably, he doesn’t rush
projecting himself through the slush,
outstanding and so debonair.
