Into the Garden by JM Scott FREE on Kindle Through January 10, 2018

Hey all, Into the Garden: Acrostic Poetry Collection is FREE in all Kindle markets through January 10, 2018. As the title suggests it is a book filled with acrostic poems.  Each poem title is something you would find in a garden.

For those who don't know, an acrostic poem is a when a word is spelled down the (often) left margin, each letter of the word starts the line. You may have seen these around. I will admit, this one of my favorite form of poetry, right up there with Tanka and Haiku.

The free sample is "Apricot." If you look on the left and spell downward, you will see the word "apricot." I know the titles don't have much to do with the poem. I'm one of those odd balls that is in love with the idea that you, the reader, creates your own meaning or correlations.

Enjoy.... And if you like the poem, grab the whole book for a poetic ride, I hope you won't forget.
