It’s Unconditional
An acrostic poem

Terrifyingly beautiful

Getting Serious About Comedy (Part I)
If I were asked to remark on my life and the childhood that paved some road leading me to this point, I would have to say something about all the funny people who surrounded me for the last 26,872 days (and counting). Somewhere along that road, I became a big fan of laughter and the comedy that spawns it – and, I mean not only my own laughter, but the laughter of others, some of which I have actually been responsible for inducing.

great piece
I love that it's an acrostic. I am an idiot and didn't spot that right away. ☺
I very much enjoyed this! I like your approach to form and your word choice.
Awww, this was so sweet! Loved your Acrostic!
Thank you for the interesting and delicious content. Follow my stories now.
Really love what you did with quite a tricky word to do an acrostic for - very good example of brevity! Well done, Sarah!
