I really like this loop acrostic style of poem. I don't think that I've seen anyone ever do this before. I am new at this form of poetry but I enjoy it. I think your sentiments on hardship are spot on. Well done my friend. God bless. -January L. :)

You did a great job with this interesting form. Your words flow smoothly with great meaning. Your repeated words, as per the loop requirements, fit in nicely to carry the message along. You give readers much to think about.
Thanks for sharing.
Respectfully, Jan

Hi Kahpot,

Real blues poem here. The art and the words and the theme and the line style. It speaks of the hopes and the fight through the lost scenes of life. What challenges we face are God's call.

Very well done about feelings,
Peace be with you,
Urial

As the words get repeated from the end of one line to the beginning of the next, there's this sense of a life dripping down like raindrops running down a windowpane. We feel hope fading away, little by little, the strength to carry on waning away. A great portrait of hardship and how it wears you away. estory

Excellent writing, my friend. Good to see you back to the task of writing. I sincerely did miss you.

Ironic how these lines pertain so well to today's crisis in the world:
"Deflated from life that's inhaled by shadows
Shadows that darken one's clarity of hope...."

Bless you my friend. good job. Bob

This is very well written and full of wisdom. How wonderful to find this among all the others around you. Not only are the words profound, but well chosen. This appears hard to do, a loop/acrostic poem, yet also all at once comes across as though effortless. It shows a thoughtful poet, where hard earned choices have come to be a way of life. Expressed with a clarity of vision from someone who has been there and back again. I like the last phrase and thought the best. "Positives that fell to challenges of Hardship." I especially like how you write the word "challenges," showing the idea that a hardship can be overcome and viewed as a challenge, rather than fate to be accepted. We all have and will continue to have, challenges to face that may lead to temporary or continual hardship. This deserves 'poem of the month' status. Thank you for this eye opening survey of how hardships deal blows to the best and worst of us, both.
Take care,
Jesse
