Your descriptions capture how hardships are caused and tend to affect a soul. It's not just about the decisions, but also the time has a part to play in it. Loop poems can sound a bit choppy, but yours flows really well. Each line adds up the theme.

Well K, you were always one who reached for the brass ring, and you have done marvelously with this acrostic loop poem. Talk about a challenge, with the loop also being a complete loop from hardship to hardship.

I wonder why you didn't enter this into the loop contest?

Your motif is a perfect match with this excellent poem.

Many thanks for sharing today. :)

The form of Acrostic and Loop is a challenge you have met nicely. Your thoughts on hardship are very meaningful and informative.

"Inside of a heart once beating with positives
Positives that fell to challenges of Hardship" Well said.

It's quite an accomplishment to write an acrostic loop poem, and you definitely met the tricky requirements - while you created a nice continuity in the chain of thoughts. The poem is rather philosophical than dramatic, however many word couplings are rather elegant and offer enriching imagery: "as time seems deflated', 'inhaled by shadows'.
In fact, I believe you picked the perfect form, because the loop repetition illustrate the sense of stuckness - the echos of hardship if you please.
Very well done!

I felt this way for a long time when it came to my own writing but I've recently decided to come back and it seems I was meant to read this tonight. Thank you for the work. Later daze.

I liked the way you set this out, one line following on, telling a story as you wrote. It doesn't pay to say it will never happen to me. Life is a lesson, hardship is being at the bottom of the pile without hope. Well done.

    You are most welcome. When we recognize our strengths and weaknesses, it is then we can work on the weaker points before sliding into oblivion. Bless you friend.

The words of this poem describe hardships well. I found them well
thought out. I thought about the Corona Virus and how it has
caused hardships for many. The poem flows and connects well. The
author's choice of artwork goes well with this poem.

Hello Kahpot,
Your acrostic loop poem is creative and filled with opportunities for the reader to pause and reflect on hardship in her own life. I must admit that I haven't faced too many, and even when I did, early on in our marriage in terms of finding employment, I was so in love with my husband that my situation seemed minor compared to the hardships of so many.

Thank you for sharing!
