A very cute poem. I enjoyed reading smitten. You did well with this form of poetry, which isn't an easy one to do. Good luck in the contest. Sararb

LOL Wow. I'd say you picked the wrong picture for this poem. This guy seems like he's about to die from an overdose of arrow(s). Yeah, plural. But your poem speaks of only one. :)

Glad you got a laugh. This guy needed a plethora of arrows to be truly smitten ... ;)

You followed the protocol for writing an Acrostic poem in good form. I enjoyed the alliteration of senses seem silly, stupid and traipsing town trance trying. Good luck in the contest.

This love acrostic is really good! It's skillfully-written--I like rhymed metered poetry--and descriptively worded.
Well done

I really like the playful tone of "Smitten" and can almost hear it being sung by Justin Bieber.
Some wonderful use of alliteration and good rhymes.
Easy to visualize the poor "victim" as he goes "traipsing through town in a trance."

Thanks for the wonderful review. That's funny thinking of Justin Beiber singing 'Smitten' - it might work as song lyrics.
Glad you liked the playful tone. Appreciate all your comments ... ;o)
