The Acrostic

Spent a couple hours

On a puzzle from The Times,

An activity I almost like

As much as making rhymes.

 

I do the crossword daily,

Since it’s there in each edition

And work on it until my solving’s

Come to its fruition.

 

Yet on Sunday, in the magazine,

Some other puzzles wait,

Where varied types on different weeks,

In print, will alternate.

 

I tackled the acrostic,

Which is challenging and cool.

I usually finish

With a few tries, as a rule.

 

But today I was determined

And kept at it ‘til I finished.

Supposedly, this will not let

My brain cells be diminished.
