R-ays above bathe your heart,
O-ctober eleventh morn;
N-ew dawn has just broken
A-t the day when you were born.
L-et the beacon bathe your heart,
Y-our mind, soul, and spirit too;
N-ight chill has disappeared into the dark, gray and blue.
R-adiant glows that shine
A-re making a fresh fine start;
N-either dusk nor twilight,
A-llow the sun to bathe
Y-our heart.
Allow the sun to bathe your heart. I really like that phrase. Congratulations on poem of the day!

An intriguing approach to a Birthday poem. Not just as an acrostic, but your choice of imagery is not the typical birthday fare. I applaud your creativity and the freshness of your perspective. Well done!
Such a beautiful composition! My great pleasure revisiting this wonderful piece!
Acrostic song Is difficult to write. But the poet has chosen the birth day to write it with ease. Excellent.
A radiantly lovely birthday tribute, Bernard. A joy to read.
Warm words embalming the heart of the reader! Sweet and lovely!
R-adiant glows that shine A-re making a fresh fine start; N-either dusk nor twilight, A-llow the sun to bathe Y-our heart.........touching expression with lofty theme. Beautiful poem.10
