G ENTLENESS is an outmoded trait
E veryone's shoutin' to get their own way
N obody says please or thank you no more
T hey push in your way and don't hold the door !
L et's all resolve to be nicer today
E veryone gentle not pushing - give way
N obody likes a Man who is rude- But
E veryone thinks it's a laugh to be crude !
S o I hope you'll agree we need more TLC
S o I'll be nice to YOU - then you'll be nice to ME !
Thanks for reading - Please comment - BRIAN

- Comment from author about the poem: We do live in an aggressive age - every Man for himself - and little respect for Ladies. I try hard to be a Gentleman but we are a dying breed. What do you think ? Yours BRIAN

this is the first acrostics poem that I read that rhymes. you did an excellent job!
Thanks for your comment ! I am a performance poet and I love acrostics and I love rhyme. Combining the two is not easy but in the end I find it very rewarding. Love New York City and I love the memorials to the much missed iconic "Twin Towers". I like the way the waterfalls flow endlessly down the black holes in the centres of the two memorials on the former bases of the Towers. It was stark but a fitting reminder that the souls of the 3000 TT Martyrs live on in our memories and in Eternity - May they rest in Peace. Yours BRIAN
