Excellent Looping-Acrostic is a Loop poem. I never read one before.

The repeating lines are not forced and the poem flows well.

I know it's hard to move on. The structure makes sense, it draws on emotions and it presents strong images.

Wow you doubled the challenge with this Looping Acrostic. Our memories seem to slip out of the vault more frequently when our loved one is gone, I know mine do. Well done on both the topic and the forms.
cheers,
valda

Well, as if tackling one tricky form was not enough, you thumbed your nose and wrestled with two in the same poem! And it works! I'm impressed by how well this flows. I think it is interesting how memory itself becomes a character in the poem, and an unruly one at that. Well done!

You always do such a great poems with your signature looping acrostics! I like the message of the days being in the vault of memories and hoping the beloved will continue to make memories together into the future.

Vault that's holding yesterdays emotions (yesterday's)

-Nice artwork and presentation, kahpot.
-Your notes are appreciated, and I am
sorry you are having to move on from a past loved one.
It isn't easy, but eventually gets better. I hope that is
the case for you.
-You always do a good job with the loop acrostic.
-I like the image "memory's vault...holding yesterday's emotions."
-I'm a little confused about these lines:
"Yearn release, to another's heart deserved
Deserved yet denied until you I ask."
-I don't know if you feel you have to ask in order
to keep the other person's memories as you move on to another.
-I guess it all depends on the nature of that relationship.
-Thanks for sharing this.

    You are very welcome, kahpot. I think it is hard to write about our feelings, but you did a good job.

A fine acrostic loop and this is not an easy form to achieve and you managed to make it look easy here. Love the sentiments of memories shared here everyday, love Dolly x

Like the loop pen we tend to swing backwards to recapture something of the past. We can and do move on, but we hold o to bits and pieces as we create new memories. It is difficult, but poetry helps.

I think this is grand, Kahpot! If this had rhymed, it would had been ruined. Lovely offering in a combined acrostic/loop poem.

Sending you my best today as always,
Sal :))

This is a good acrostic for the contest, and I wish you the best in the contest. The only problem I have with it is that you use the dark fog along with the darker background if you had used like a pink or white for the font on the darker brown background, it would've been easier for people with vision problems like I have to be able to read the lawn. The only way I know what it said was because I was able to listen to it.

The artwork is grand, and the concept superb, but here and there, beginning on line one, rests a restlessness for me as if it is inharmonious.
Another would be line six - until you I ask" ???
Lastly, why is thoughtfully dissected into two words?
