C is for Careers - Rhymed
Acrostics A to Z
Calling collect, as countless careers are careening these
days.
Careers
Calendars and callings count.
Calendars and callings count.
Aptitudes raise all amount.
Rank recession pulls us back -
Each employee’s heart attack.
Economics, heckles raise;
Risk analysis betrays.
“Stop the bleeding!” Nation pays.

I enjoyed this!
ReplyDeleteJust the kind of word play that makes me smile, and I also smile that there are other people out there (lots of them) who think it's ok to be able to play with words like this, rather than look at it as geeky or posh!
Ha!
Cheers,

That was a tough one! Go you for getting all that content in there.
ReplyDeleteI've had my kids write acrostic puzzles but we've never put so much into it like your website suggests.
