Comment from Lisasview
Love your Acrostic poem...And, what a great subject to write about...I like that each letter starts with a RED letter..
I do have one thought... Perhaps a slightly larger font as you image covers up so much space and I do not feel it is balanced...

lisa: Thanks for your gracious comments and supper suggestion, but
my lack of computer skills limit me in any changing of "fonts" and other stuff that's been suggested. teafor2

You do not need computer skills to change you FONT... It is right there on the same page as when you post your words...Click edit and look at the bar across the top of your post... Look for the word Font... Then click the error up to get a larger font 22 is the one I use most often.
Then Highlight your poem and go back to the font and click on the arrow again and it will change your font...really so easy...

Thanks Lisa., I am going to try what you suggested. teafor2

Actually, You can just highlight your entire piece and then go into FONT and change the size...
Comment from Jesse James Doty
Is this for real? I love the declaration of sentiments presented in your acrostic poem. Well done and good job and all that jazz.
This speaks to the need for the ERA the equal rights amendment which people of all genders fought to get approved back in the late 80s I believe. I protested along with many others for the Equal Rights Amendment but because of time constraints, the amendment didn't pass.
What you brought up happened years before.
Impressive and powerful!
Thanks for sharing what you know about women's suffrage.

Jesse: This is sad but true...A small group of women lead by Elizabeth
Candy Stanton composed this document based on The Declaration of
Independence and demanded women's rights under its promise. teafor2

Thanks for turning me onto the wonderful information. I am impressed. We need equal rights.

Comment from karenina
1848/ Elizabeth Candy Stanton, right?
Very smart and brave woman to upset the applecart!
To think women were essentially the property of their husband!
No right to sign contracts...
Legally bound to keep his house, and perform "marital duties."
We've come a long way but still often do not get equal pay for equal work!

Karenina: That's right! This lady along with a hand full of her comrades were bold enough to 'fight city hall" and the egotistical men to get what the Declaration of Independence promised. As a 'Girls' dad, I am the luckiest man alive: my eldest daughter is a 911
communicator and my youngest is a teacher. teafor2

Noble professions, both. You should be a proud papa!

Comment from pome lover
well, here you go, teaching me something new. I did know some women drew up a document, demanding equality for women, but I didn't know it was called the Document of Sentiments. A rather strange name, it seems to me, but it did the trick, so ...
A very nice acrostic!

Comment from Elise H
I really enjoyed that first stanza. It's clear and creative, especially in the last bit: "Referencing All The Issues Of Nepotism." I also liked the legal language in the last stanza here: "Notice To Incumbent Males..." That's clever.

This is great. Your words share a message about fairness and equality. But you do so in such a unique way. I love the line about males... haha. Great job.
