Bluntly ...
(reflections of the shrimp, part 2)
 
Joanna, little as she is, is
As said before, born as a shrimp into this world
Merrily reading Wikipedia in

She does not really know
 
But soon she is to find out
Loud and clear, it is to be found right
Under her
Nose: it is never too late
To bluntly change carreers!

Nice work. I would not make it so obvious that it is an acrostic. It takes the joy of discovery away. I know some would not get it but, hey that is what makes acrostics special.

I do see one small nit: carreers should be careers.
