Sunrise Calls

On By Lauren Scott, AuthorIn Poetry

Saturday – an Acrostic poem

Sunrise calls early, an
Alarm, golden, intense
Tickling with its rays, sending an
Undercurrent to venture outside and
Renew spirits with beauty surrounding.
Dive into nature’s inspiring offerings,
Abandon heavy burdens in mind,
Yesterday becomes today’s gift.

** An acrostic is a piece of writing in which a particular set of letters—typically the first letter of each line, word, or paragraph—spells out a word or phrase with special significance to the text. Acrostics are most commonly written as a form of poetry, but they can also be found in prose or used as word puzzles. While the most common type of acrostic is one formed by the initial letters of each line, there are many different types of acrostics with letters in different positions.

We’re heading for the trail this morning for a hike (my first since dealing with health changes in the last year).
So, if you can, get outdoors to inhale the fragrance of nature and enjoy!

Have a lovely Saturday and weekend!
Lauren ❤️❤️

    1. Thanks for your lovely words, Cindy. It was good to finally get on the trail again after a year of figuring out how to live and combat the new pain. I felt so happy that I could do it! Thanks to the epidural. Life isn’t as doom and gloom as it was when it all began. Enjoy your Sunday! 🩷

  13. That you can get out and hike is indeed worth of a poem and celebration, Lauren. “Abandon heavy burdens in mind,” Living in and enjoying the present.

    1. Thanks, Curt! It felt good to get on the trail again, moving in the right direction. It took a year, but that’s okay. I’m glad you enjoyed the poem. Enjoy the outdoors wherever you and Peggy are!

  31. Excellent Lauren!

    The idea of an acrostic puts one in a peg hole, with the poem.

    This is one of the best I’ve heard! (I had to listen, esp. after hearing you on the podcast!)

    1. Thanks so much, Mike! I thank my husband for opening my eyes to nature’s offerings. And now, nature inspires around every corner. 🙂 Thanks for stopping by, and I hope you have a good weekend, my friend.
