Acrostic Man: a Collaboration With Ken Duddle

Form: Acrostic
Don’t walk by,pretend not to see

Outside in the cold is no place to be

Whistle to yourself,think glad it’s not me

No-one can escape their destiny.

 

No-one can prepare for all trials of life

One day it is bliss the next day is strife

Taking one day at a time is now my life.

 

Optimism is the only way out

Upturns are ahead I have no doubt

Thinking to myself I am down not out.

Because when I am sensing the dark side
I remember who always stands by side
Through him is where all my power does reside

Thrown away all I have of  foolish pride
My love for him is no longer denied
No more drinking shall there be of their flouride

Caught I a glimpse of yonder far hillside
Location found is highly classified
Tell you its close though, time of the Yuletide

Be sure you protect your broadside
This is to make sure that you don't backslide
Vast distance to go before you reach dockside

The seas you travel know they are mystified
Dangers encountered will seemed magnified
At its end you journey will be justified

Comes from your heart and I can relate to it so much. And 'In the end only kindness matters' (Jewel). Thank you, Kai
