Acrostic Poems

Earthquakes: E-arth shudders on its hinge A-ll experience that terrific punch R-oads crack and traffic stops T-remors rock and havoc wreaks H-orror strikes and rubble heaps Q-uest to save the trapped turns in vain U-nder the rubble, men scream in pain A-fter shocks and seismic waves, K-illing thousands, the disaster leaves. E-ngulfing gloom swallows the Earth S-ky high dreams, shattered in death! Ghost: G-hastly noises heard around H-aunted houses with thickets surround O-ld castles where mysteries abound S-tarved faces greatly confound T-errible bats worse than hounds Storm: S-trong and swift the wind blows T-wirling and twisting delicate blooms O-rchards strewn with fruits- ripe n' raw R-ain and thunder snarl and growl M-aking the sea suddenly shriek and howl.
