Hyper (an acrostic poem)

How many times can you hit that ball off the wall?

You getting annoyed by it?

Please, for goodness sake, yes!

Even if I change the rhythm?

Reaching out and grabbing the ball.  “Enough!”

Book (an acrostic poem)

Between the covers lives a synergy of two consciousnesses

Obviously that of the author, but also that of the reader

Organically melding into a reality neither has full control over

Keeping both guessing how it will turn out

Bluff (an acrostic poem)

Betting it all, Michaela sat back and waited

Looking her opponent straight in the eye

Under her stern stare, he began to wilt

Folding, he threw his cards in.  He showed her a pair of kings

Flipping one of her cards, an ace, she reached for her chips, hiding her four

Blue (an acrostic poem)

Being melancholy is the new normal

Living under azure skies sure doesn’t seem to help

Uttering profanities as I try to decipher how to get out of it

Even though I don’t have a clue

Scents (an acrostic poem)

Something really smelled bad

Christine plugged her nose and entered her daughter Fiona’s room

Every piece of clothing had somehow escaped her closet and found its way to the floor

Not going to find the source of the stink in that mess she just closed the door

That’s why, when Fiona was told she had to clean before doing anything else…

She said, “That stinks!”  No truer words were spoken.

Trick (an acrostic poem)

The magician pulled up her sleeves and pulled out her bestest smile

Reaching out she produced the deck of cards out of thin air

It amazed the onlookers, but that was just the appetizer

Crafting more magic she took her audience on a journey, but suddenly they disappeared

Keeping her eyes closed, she wished the dream never had to end

Pill (an acrostic poem)

Prescription bottle laid empty in front of him

It had held the meds to mend his broken heart

Looking off into space, his eyes had the same emptiness as the bottle

Losing the battle with himself

Mild (an acrostic poem)

Maybe variety is the spice of life, but

Isaac worried about getting burned

Loving to do the same thing over and over

Delicious blandness that left him fulfilled

Win (an acrostic poem)

When you finally get something to go right

It spreads across your face as the feeling grows inside

Now onto the next challenge

Code (an acrostic poem)

Clicking like mad on her keyboard

Ordering her computer to bend to her will

Determined to watch it compile and run successfully

Errors proliferated like rabbits and she decided it was going to be a long night
