My sisters guest post

Hi! Happy New Year!
So, I have five brothers and sisters, and one of them, my ten year old sister, is a budding poet. She is going to do a guest post about Acrostic Poetry, a really interesting form. It's all yours,Girl!!!!

"Hi! I am the 'Girl' that my sister talks about:)
I am going to tell you about an acrostic poem.

 An acrostic (from French acrostiche < post-classical Latin acrostichis < Hellenistic Greek: , from ancient Greek:  'highest, topmost' 'verse') is a poem or other form of writing in which the first letter, syllable or word of each line, paragraph or other recurring feature in the text spells out a word or a message^. As a form of constrained writing, an acrostic can be used as a mnemonic device to aid memory retrieval. A famous acrostic was made in Greek for the acclamation JESUS CHRIST, GOD, SON, SAVIOUR, Iesous CHristos, THeou Yios, Soter — ch and th being each one letter in Greek). The initials spell ICHTHYS (ΙΧΘΥΣ), Greek for fish.

 Here's a Acrostic by someone on the internet:

Clara By The 'Girl'

Clever and calm,

Lightly freckled,

And tall for ten,

Radiant, quiet,

And sweet. That's all!
