Moon acrostic poem

A marvelous sight.
Soon the stars come out.
To bask in the lunar light.
A new cycle of life begins tomorrow.

Hi, I saw ur acrostic poem but am confused. What do you u mean by acrostic? I thought that aside crosswords in newspapers & the like that an acrostic poem was like a palindrome though (of course being more than one word) whose initial letters (of each line) make a word/s when read downwards. An acrostic might use the middle line (mesostich) or final (telestich) letter of each line. For example, a famous all-around acrostic is:

R O T A S

O P E R A

T E N E T

A R E P O

S A T O R

Any ideas?

Thanks

Acrostic in the sense of the second letter of each line spelling out the title. It's a little different from other acrostic poems, I realize. I wrote it for a contest at allpoetry a few years ago. This style of acrostic wasn't necessarily my idea. It was a user by the name of Tink/Elevens-Rae who thought this style up. I just wrote the poem in that style.

I can't remember who said it, but there was a famous writer who said that the shorter the piece he was writing, the longer it took to write.

I haven't heard that quote. I wouldn't be surprised if that quote were true for some people, though. Some lyric poems I can usually write in the time frame of half an hour. I think it depends more on the style and form of poetry I'm writing rather than the length of the poem itself that makes it take longer to write. :)
