Fragile Hearts

FRAGILE HEARTS DOUBLE ACROSTIC F inally you appeared, right out of the blue R andom chance that I would ever meet you A fter all that we've been through G od knew that our hearts were fragile too I nstead of searching for love in vain L ove has brought us here together E ternal bliss supplants stormy weather H appiness was found here in your smile E verything you do, makes life worthwhile A fter you, there could never be another R ipples of you will go on forever T rials and tribulations are in store, but S ay you will stay with me forevermore ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- F allen victims of tragic love R esurrected emotions, just to be A nihilated by deception again G oes against my will, and common sense I ntuition tells me not to trust again, then L ove conquers all of my fears and E ventually, you ease my pain H appiness is transitory at best E xcept when you find a love that is true A ll you can do, is guard your fragile heart R efuse to give it away, unless they are T rustworthy of character, Divine S o bring down your walls, and let love's light shine John Derek Hamilton September 25,2016

John, I think both acrostic poems are beautifully and wonderfully penned, but there is something about your second one that touched my soul, for I find it hard to trust my heart with love, anyways, wonderful examples for your contest, I hope I can pen you a worthy entry, will be working on that today ~

Two contradictory thoughts but both have poetic touch. I liked both.

They are both good but the second seems more poetic and carries more power. In my opinion the first is too wordy.

I want door #1, John. The content thoroughly resonates with me and my true love found after I'd given up. It touched me with every line in a most personal way. Also, I think the lines flow more smoothly and consistently. Love it ... CayCay
