Best Valentine Mom
On Valentine’s day, I think of you, Mom;
I love you really a lot.
In my life that’s full of many good things,
You’re the very best thing I’ve got!It’s Valentine’s Day, so I want to say,
I’m the luckiest kid anywhere;
You’re the sweetest, greatest, best mom around
And I want you to know I care!Happy Valentine’s Day, Mom!
A Friend Is Like A Valentine
A friend is like a Valentine,
Heartwarming, bringing pleasure,
Connected to good feelings,
With memories to treasure.
Seeing a special Valentine
Brings happiness to stay,
And that’s what you do, friend,
You brighten every day!
Roses are Red
Roses are Red
Violets are Blue
Carnations are Sweet
And so are you.
And so are they
That send you this
And when we meet
We'll have a kiss.
LOVE IS LIKE A CABBAGE
My love is like a cabbage
Divided into two,
The leaves I give to others,
The heart I give to you.
What Love Is
Love is when that special someone kisses you.
Love is having someone to talk to.
Love is being romantic on that one day.
Love is happiness that is shown day after day
THAT'S WHAT LOVE IS!
How to Write an Acrostic
What is an Acrostic?
- Acrostics are a fun poetic form that anyone can write.
- To begin with, an acrostic is a poem in which the first letters of each line spell out a word or phrase. The word or phrase can be a name, a thing, or whatever you like.
- Usually, the first letter of each line is capitalized.
- Acrostics are easy to write because they don’t need to rhyme, and you don’t need to worry about the rhythm of the lines. Each line can be as long or as short as you want it to be.
Creating an Acrostic in Five Easy Steps
To create an acrostic, follow these five easy steps:- Decide what to write about.
- Write your word down vertically.
- Brainstorm words or phrases that describe your idea.
- Place your brainstormed words or phrases on the lines that begin with the same letters.
- Fill in the rest of the lines to create a poem.
An Ice Cream Acrostic
For example, I especially like ice cream, so I decided to write an acrostic about ice cream. Begin by writing the word “ICE CREAM” down the page like this:
I
C
E
C
E
C
R
E
A
M
Next, you want to say something about ice cream in each line. A good
way to do this is to “brainstorm” lots of ideas. I wrote down a list of
all the ice cream flavors.R
E
A
M
Ice Cream
I
Cookies & Cream.
English Toffee.
Cookies & Cream.
English Toffee.
Chocolate Chip.
Rocky Road.
E
Almond Fudge.
M
You’ll notice that I didn’t fill in all of the lines. Finally, I filled in the missing lines, like this. That’s because I
couldn’t think of a flavor that started with “I”Rocky Road.
E
Almond Fudge.
M
:
Ice Cream
I love every flavor.
Cookies & Cream.
English Toffee.

Chocolate Chip.
Rocky Road.
Even Strawberry and
Almond Fudge.
Mmmmmmmm.
Rocky Road.
Even Strawberry and
Almond Fudge.

Things to Remember

- Names are a common topic. Try writing one using your best friend’s name and giving it to him or her as a gift.
- You can use single words, phrases, or even full sentences in your acrostic poem.
