Here's an acrostic of American Sentences.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Laughter, like a wireless phone connection, rings in my heart and soul.
Announcer of emotions like birds in trees cawing about the cold temps.
Nouns and verbs marching like soldiers from lips through air to ears, hup, two, three…
Gestures: fingers that point and show disgust, hands saying come here or stop.
Ugh, ah, oh, wow, gee, ooh, ow, eek: sounds of life, words unnecessary.
Authors of books are heroes, with their backpacks of words and ideas.
Gazes that flow like the scent of baking bread with messages of love.
Envelopes of words we slit open to release the magic of speech.

I think that's tremendous. I've only just discovered acrostics (to write, that is) and I think they're great fun.
nice acrostic!!! each line stands so strong even on its own. my favorite is "N".
great descriptions of so many forms of language!
You've been touched by a fairy. Please come by and claim your award.
I LOVE how you did this. I've done these before to hide messages I didn't want just anyone to read LOL. But I've never thought to do one like this. GREAT job!

Dead good! ugh, ah, wow, etc. is my favourite line.

What fun! I love the closing line, those envelopes of words slit open to release the magic of speech; reminded me of how I once felt, receiving letters from a faraway lover.

Beautifully written.
I love the format employed here (as well as your words).
