By the Way Sunday


By the way...
How are you at acrostics?
Pick 3 words, any 3 words you like and make acrostics out of them.
For example...
JOY:
Jesus
Others
You
Be creative, express yourself!


I do not know if this is correct, I did it with four letters…

LOVE:
Likeable
Open
Valued
Empathetic

I didn't know what an Acrostic was so I looked it on on Wikipedia and they had this poem by Edgar Allan Poe poem titled simply An Acrostic as an example:

Elizabeth it is in vain you say
"Love not" — thou sayest it in so sweet a way:
In vain those words from thee or L.E.L.
Zantippe's talents had enforced so well:
Ah! if that language from thy heart arise,
Breath it less gently forth — and veil thine eyes.
Endymion, recollect, when Luna tried
To cure his love — was cured of all beside —
His follie — pride — and passion — for he died.
