Single Acrostic - 

Example:With a word 'LOVE'

Look for reasons to help when confided

Open your heart and ear when needed

Value their opinions when they say

Enjoy their being with you always

Example :With the Letter 'L'

Learn to forgive with

Little curves called smile making

Lines of the life path straight to

Live in abundance and

Lead a happy life
