What a deep and meaningful poem. So well-written, and I love that the last word of each line carries on to be the first word of the next line.

This is great.

All the best.

Such a wonderful way to describe what the heart and/or the spirit goes through after unexpected events/devestations... well done, sir!! ;) These are tough to 'pull off' but you make it look easy! ;) Thanx for sharing that pen today! ;) Yvette

Fine work for an acrostic loop--they so often sound forced into the form--rife with powerful and fresh imagery of devastation--apt notes put this piece into context.

You have impressed me by combining two forms of poetry into one poem. I can't imagine that it's easy, I've tried but not with great results. It's a tribute to your sensitivity that you wrote this to help others cope. Thank you for sharing. :)

I have not been familiar with the acrostic loop format. Very impressive to stay within the boundaries and relay a coherent message at the same time. Keep writing.

This work has reached the exceptional level

I'm speechless. This poem hits home on so many levels. The loop form that you chose definitely translates how deep a crevice tragedy can carve.

Thank you for sharing this!

Hi my friend. You have been away for quite some time, have you not? It's good to see you back and writing...not just an acrostic, but it is coupled with a "loop" too and a fine job of the entire thing. Bob.

What a beautiful example you give us writers on how to expertly carry our this challenging type of poetry. There is a real journey we take within your reception of the previous word.

I didn't think I was going to like this style with the end word beginning the next line, however I did find it easy to read. It's a clear representation of devastation.
Thanks for sharing in a form that is rarely seen on FS.
