This is a very good acrostic, interpreting what poetry can do for people. I'm sorry this review isn't the best, but I just found out that Brooke (adewpearl) is in a nursing home with MS. I'm in a state of shock. So, so sad.

Hello Friend,
Thank you very much for your so lovely and encouraging comments, even after having so much heavy heart.
This news has made me also sad, for she has been so close to me for a long time. I wish her speedy recovery.
Have a pleasant time!

You sound just like me, I am always spouting about poetry that doesn't rhyme-I dislike it, it seems to meander and has no meaning most of the time. As for haikus, don't start me off on that subject, I may not stop! Hope you don't mind my rant, but I am so happy to have found someone else for our rhyming group- we are a dying breed. There is no reason why an acrostic poem shouldn't rhyme-you just proved it by your cleverly written acrostic. Excellent message about the advantages of good poetry, and excellent rhyming. Good luck in the contest. I hope everyone read what you wrote in the notes, I couldn't have put it better myself!! Faye

Comment from Barb Hensongispsaca
Your words ring true.
Nicely written in the acrostic form. Rule followed for the contest.
Rhyme is good and so is rhythm to make it flow.
A message to all, I love poems that rhyme because it takes a little work and understanding of the rules of rhyme.

Comment from emkoutny
I like this because it speaks to the importance of what we do as poets. Poetry endures and speaks to our hearts. I once read "poetry is the flesh of our souls." I like that. It is an attempt at the impossible-to translate feelings of the heart. There is a universal need for that expression, and poetry is where we turn when the world gets to be too much and requires understanding.

Comment from Margaret Snowdon
The Acrostic isn't the easiest of
poems, RP - but to keep rhyme throughout
makes this most impressive.
good luck with the contest.

Comment from Kingsland
You can also be well educated when reading poetry as well, or should I have said. Increase you knowledge when reading poetic verve. This was an excellent piece of poetic art. I liked the message line in its thoughts. It was a very enjoyable read...

Comment from damodarboruah
Acrostic of Poetry I bit surprised:how with stark simplicity and lucidity using every words so perfectly placed that the whole definition of poetry is vividly described.
The last two lines mean as if meant to me that the youth should take care poetry to new height and I add here it's responsibility of them to do something of this special subject.
It's superb!
