I agree with you in what you say, of course poetry should be entertaining but somehow it must also be inspiring and educative. Excellent writing, RPSAZENA, I enjoyed your piece from beginning to end, good luck in the contest...Jacob

An interesting point of view expressed in a poem with good rhythm, rhyme and flow. That's quite a lofty objective you've set for poetry, which I suspect most, even the best, does not fully meet. I myself write mostly free verse, which of course doesn't rhyme, even though it has rhythm and flow, which some say is quite sophisticated. Many of my poems are also thought-provoking commentary seeking to achieve many of the objectives expressed in your poem.

It's a valid point of view this. So you are one of the: Writing poetry without rhyme is like playing tennis without the net! I appreciate you add a wealth of other things that can and should make up a good poem. This hgas some great rhyme particularly the feminie endings in th middle.

Well constructed acrostic on the word Poetry, with good informative author notes to back it up. Good rhyming couplets throughout and I hope you do well in the contest. Warm regards Dorothy x

RPSaxena;
-Your acrostic poem is written very well. I completely agree on the concept and perspective of your poem. But I do understand that sometimes, not only is poetry educational but it can stand alone is just being entertaining.
-Good use of enjambment, which is the running on of a thought and concepts in one stanza and line to the next without a syntactical break.
-The lines flow perfectly throughout the poem and are interconnected grammatically very well.
-They are very demonstratively descriptive and exquisitely expressive throughout.
-The picture is fun and somewhat relative and complementary to the poem.
-Suggestion for improvement: that the Lions had a structural rhythm and relative meter, like that of, pentameter or tetrameter and even iambic to boot, it would definitely be exceptionally recognized.
-Good luck in the contest, and may the Lord be with you always, my friend.
Alex
