G is for Gumption - Rhymed Acrostics A to Z



G is for Gumption - Rhymed Acrostics A to Z

Goodness! Gracious! Who’s a go-getter? Who's got that good old get-up-and-go?

Gumption


Go for triumph. Seek the end.
Understand and apprehend.
Make a promise. Eye the line.
Pick a spot, and stake it thine.
Take a stand, and make a vow.
I’m all-in. Don’t stop me now.
Overcomers, stubborn sorts,
Never question good reports.

  2. I never knew there was a NaPoWriMo! Will have to check this out. I tried the whole "write a poem a day" but only lasted a month and a half then saw a shiny thing and so now only do them every now and then. Going to check out your link though - great post! Good Luck!
