Friday Fling #183 June 1st 2012
It’s the first of June and you know what that means: things will happen because it’s June!
So what would that be? What do you associate most with June? How about associating it in an Acrostic?
An Acrostic is a poetry format whose number of lines depends on how many initial letters make up the word or phrase you choose. For instance
June is the middle of three J months
Uh huh
Not the first, or the third.
Every year it’s right in the middle.
This week the Friday Fling Celebrates June stuff Acrostically!
Be sure to save time to read and comment Uncaustically on your fellow Pals’ June Acrostics. The go enjoy the first weekend in June!
Fickle Finger of Fate Award for May 25th
Congratulations Angel Love!

June is a special time
Uulike many months
Not cold nor too, hot
Easy to lay back and enjoy
Bring your bug spray for fleas
Under arms they may be
Goes to hide need to survive until June bugs flee

Welcome everyone to the Friday Fling! It will be June in 4 hours here so time to start thinking about whatever June brings that is most important to you! And consider writing a poem about it! Acrosticize it if you want!
(Note that besides the standard Acrostic in which the first letter of each line, read down, spells out a word related to the topic of the poem, like the one I wrote for the intro above, there is also the “Hidden Acrostic” in which the letters forming the key word or phrase are embedded in the lines, in some kind of order like straight down, diagonally, or not! I wrote the one I am posting below this way.)

Sun-drenched sands
And surf running high,
Never-ending fun from
Dawn ’till setting sun,
Catching the rays of June
And riding the waves,
Sandcastles and sunshine
Tickling my toes.

Enjoying surf and sun --
