Very nice. Yes, poetry as well other art forms can be used to bridge the gap between men and bring the positives aspects of life to more people. It brightens up our day sort of speak. Well done.

Comment from Sandra Stoner-Mitchell
Excellent acrostic, and so well written. Poetry is the perfect platform for many topics, not to mention our hopes and feelings. I don't think I could manage without my poetry to clear my mind of sadness, trauma, happy things, love, the list goes on, and without it, where would we be? Excellent!! Good luck in the contest! :) Sandra

Comment from royowen
You are so right RP, I agree that poetry should always be a thing of beauty, not something to be used as a tool or agenda,MIT really riles me when I see a public forum abused for personal agenda, I hope all I ever write, is either lighthearted or exhortation to reach higher, wider, further, which should be the goal of all writers, to out a sheen on society, not an ugliness, well done, my friend, beautiful acrostic entry in this contest, well done, blessings, Roy.

Hello RPSaxen, how are you?
I am thrilled I ran across this gem, and although I highly disagree with the idea that poetry should rhyme or it is junk food. We may have been taught to believe that poetry can be recognized by its arrangement of lines on the page or the use of rime and meter. Such tests are superficial and worthless The Book of Job in the Bible and Melvilles Moby Dick are highly poetical, but the familiar verse that begins with "Thirty days hath September/ April, June and November.." is not, absolutely and undeniably.
with that being said, your poetic skills are beautiful and your preference for rhyme is well understood and conveyed in this work.
well done.. jlsavell

Poetry is the vehicle that drive beauty in language, music, dance and all sweet movement. I love poetry and those who create it. To show its importance the Bible book of Psalms contains some of the greatest poetry ever created. Your poem pays a great tribute to this venerated art form.

This acrostic poem defines poetry from different prospectives; form and the emotional affects as well as its influence. Nice poem.

Comment from Brett Matthew West
That is one take on how to write poetry, not the book. Creative writing can be accomplished in several different ways and variety is the spice of life. Believe this poem falls short of grasping that concept, at least the notes do.

Comment from Benny Beeharry
I do not myself poetry in rhyme, because I cannot. I like to be free,both in mind and body. But here I see the rhymes so flows with great easiness and very cool too. The message as well is great and does justice to the rhyming.

Poetry as these words imply is the inner soul reaching needing to be heard
To be recognised as an entity a living breathing entity
The description of your words is correct and to the point

Comment from Pam (respa)
-Very nice photo for your poem.
-I like the thoughts presented in the acrostic. They are meaningful. This begins well with the first line.
-The next three lines support the opening line well with good examples and good use of poetic devices.
-The last two lines provide a nice ending.
