CHAMPION (acrostic) (c) Copyright 2009

Called to greatness from
Humble beginnings
Armed with weapons within:
Motivation and determination to
Press on, be strong, and
Inspire others to do the same
On their backs, the burdens others
Never even attempt to carry.

It's like the personification of the eye of the tiger. I really like this one. It is everything that a champion is truly supposed to be. May the Kudos be with you :)

Very cool. If I've done it, Iwasn't aware of it (better check my verses) I believe that Ps 119 (longest chapter in the Bible), is an acrostic of the Hebrew alphabet. Thank you for your creativity.

I'm sorry, I don't know the Hebrew alphabet, but you may be right. That would be interesting to research. Maybe I'll look into it later. Thank you for reading my poem.

The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.
