Caught in the glare of your brilliance
Lighting my life with your prose
Each one of you can stand proudly
Versatility's yours, and it shows
Every new poem so clever
Reading each one gives a thrill
Future new Bards will applaud you
Ever praising your wit and your skill
Learning from you is a pleasure
Looking at life through your eyes
Amazing the depth of your knowledge
Sharing each brand new surprise
Always alert to each subject
Never seems boring or trite
Devilishly clever variety
Generates tears or delight
I wish the whole world could enjoy you
Regretfully, some fail to see
Laureate levels of talent
So, I say, Fellow Bards, YOU'LL DO ME.

Hi heyu, 

We learn something every day.   Unfortunately at my age, I forget two a day.

Now I know what is an acrostic.   I always knew you were clever.  I'll never forget that.
