Another fantastic poem. I appreciate the changes in style you utilise depending on the message you wish to deliver

Carefully chosen words to create a thoroughly enjoyable, romantic piece of poetry

This looping acrostic poem, HEARTS IN PAIN, has the proper vertical first letter formatting and seems to suggest that bad experiences in early love negative effects people thereafter.

Acrostics are quite difficult to do in a meaningful way, so to combine that with a Loop Poem is quite special. It reminded me of Romeo and Juliet, (and all other star-crossed lovers too), and it was most poignant, sad, yearning and wistful. Beautiful.

This sure reminded me of Romeo and Juliet. Or maybe "West Side Story" as well. Stunning color photo to illustrate this. This looks like a hard form to master. I only found one line I tripped a bit on:
Neglect that parted soul's so pure

I think you might have meant: Neglect that parted souls so pure (just take out the apostrophe)
Romantic angst at its best!

What an excellent and eloquent Loop poem, Kim. You embedded each line with emotion, angst and longing.... it just dripped with it. I so wish I had a six to give to you. Well done!!

Nice Looping Acrostic poem. It's very romantic and sad. It's very hard to be apart the one you love.

Nice presentation and picture.

Well done, kym.

Funny how things like that will happen in life, Kahpot. I suppose that what is meant to be, will just be, no matter what parents try to do. I'm glad the kids found a way to be together no matter what their parents wanted. I bet they're all pleased about it now.

Kahpot,
This is a really great looping acrostic poem. The red lettering looks like love bleeding. I can feel this couples pain.
"Memory's truth
Truth that bleeds."
Very beautiful phrase.
Good luck with this
Blessings,
Cindy

You did a good job with writing this. I enjoyed reading it. I haven't read too many poems with the loop form, but found this a great read. Well done with your word flow. Beautiful artwork that you chose for this writing. Thank you for sharing.

Kahpot, this is a gorgeous piece telling of the struggles of this young couple with their parent's interjections in their lives. Your words capture it all quite well. Best, JohnC
