What a heartfelt and sad acrostic, Missy.

We most certainly can fall in love with people and then just as easily as they came into our lives, they leave.

Very beautiful. I love the artwork too. You always present your work with great flair.

So did you save some of you? The real problem might be not to get romantically involved with a poet. Missy, you always seem to write of unrequited love. Or is it just the subject that resonates with you?

    I do feel that I am the one person who never found their soulmate. Sad ~sigh~
    I lead with my heart. That leaves me open to heartache.
    Thanks for the understanding review, Jay.

Interesting format for your acrostic poem 'Heart Song for Love.' It tells the tale clearly.

And it might not be what the romantics recommend, but there is a little warning message in there too - give your heart and your self away totally and there is a chance of devastation.

    Hi there, Steve :)
    Before writing this, I went and read your winning poem, FAITH IS A WRAITH, all I can say is ...WOW!
    Now here you are on my lil page, reading my humble offering. I am honored. :)
    Thank you, so kindly.

    Always,
    Missy

Wonderful acrostic, Missy. The lines are all making sense and fit with first words as it should be. The only thing I would question is the last word "right?" All the rest is a love story being told or lesson to be learned all of a sudden you pull the reader in with a request for agreement with "right" (just doesn't ring the same to me.) But that may just be me. Good job, my friend. Merry Christmas! Bob

    Merry Christmas to you as well, Bob.
    I want to thank you for mentioning that. I went and changed it a bit. If you would give it a look, pretty please :)
    Thanks, as always for your kind comments on my work.

Hello :)

Beautiful acrostic poem in honor of your friend. She must have been going through a rough patch. It seems like problems of the heart. Good job with the acrostic format and the attractive presentation-interesting picture.

    Isn't it always "problems of the heart"? I try and tell her, don't put your whole heart in it just yet, but she didn't listen. Now, she suffers.
    Thank you, sweetie, for the lovely review :)

This is a very good acrostic poem you have penned. It is full of sadness and made my heart sad. You used very good descriptive wording and very good imagery. Hugs, Teri

Hi, Missy

_ It's so true.
_ You give your all to love, and sometimes it just fades away so slowly that one doesn't know anything is wrong--and then he/she lowers the boom.
_ Hard to pick up the pieces, because you were thoroughly vested, but, the main thing is--you do, and you're all the stronger for having survived.
_ Excellent write. As always, your artwork is spot on target.

* Merry Christmas to you and yours *

Cheers & Blessings

    Hi, sweetie, yes we can move on, but only if we save some of ourselves. It is easier then. It is when the love is all consuming and then gone, that sometimes we see suicides.

    Love is very tricky.

    Thanks hon for the kind review :)

Been there a couple of times and finally just gave up my friend! No fairy tale romance for me! Wonderfully crafted piece with an amazing message.
God bless!
