A well worked acrostic here your rhyme and cadence are perfect as always. You portray your subject well I read it as moving on from the past. Very nice cheers Craig

When I was small, my dad was a train driver, and I fell in love with trains. They still hold a fascination for me. I am sure the Cute Little One had a great time. This is well written. Good luck.

This smooth, rhyming poem gives good advice. Dwelling of negative past experience takes up good brain space and crowds out positive energy.

I love acrostic poetry that doesn't read or sound forced to keep in line with the letters. Your acrostic is wonderful, Brooke, as it flows so smoothly with great enjambment. Best wishes in the contest.
Smiles,
Karyn : )

This work has reached the exceptional level

Absolutely incredible! I love how you turned life into an acrostic poem train journey. Although I've heard life compared to a journey (well, it is one), the acrostic twist was brilliant! You said everything that needed to be said with nothing extra. It fits perfectly! Great job!

There are a lot of reviewers that should read this. Some poems read like a pity party. Good advice to leave the past behind and look to the future.

Simple words pointing out a serious truth about life. It's hard to move on I've found, but the alternative is just too sad to waste much time on it. Thank you for pointing out the key to finding the good in life.
