Your acrostic is peaceful filled with acceptance of the inevitability when families break down to separate. You said so much with few words. Great job! Good luck in the contest.

Well, divorce is like a death in which no one is a winner, but you gave them the option of working things out, so I see. It can happen, but mostly it never works out. Thanks for sharing this one with us and for dropping by my page. Sara

Excellent acrostic, Paula. I attempted this a few times, but I just couldn't put it together. Acrostics aren't my strong suit (lol) BOL in the contest!

Thanks for your note and for your BOL. Good to see you. Glad you like my Acrostic write. I enjoy writing the Acrostic type. You are so right, we all have the type we can write/cannot write. Some I find very hard so I stay away from them. I like to try new ones from time to time. Have a great/wonderful day...........

Divorce is something that probably was never meant to be, but unfortunately it exists and can cause much hardship decision. But I am not one to judge. Reconciliation would be great, but not a forced decision. ~ Regards & blessings, my friend // paul

I LOVE your acrostic. Divorce is probably the saddest subject to write about, certainly for any family member experiencing it, especially the couple. Your last line 'Reconciliation Comes with Eternal peace for all.' Oh Paula, such wisdom <3 If such could be possible, it is more precious than pure gold <3 Good luck in the contest, this is a great acrostic on the topic. Good job!

Beautiful divorcé acrostic, i love the line “ Vowing love now departing“ so deep. And profound. Sometimes divorce is the best answer when one is stuck in a toxic relationship. But reconciliation is beautiful thought always. Pleasure reading this. Sending you light always

Amen, eternal peace sure sounds ideal... s/t the reality seems to be that 'the old tensions' still simmer underneath the cover of cordiality... :) gw

Thanks for your note. Good to see you. Glad you like this write. Only when people change do things change. Most people do not want to change so old tensions still simmer underneath the cover of cordiality. This can also happen with friendships. Have a great/wonderful day...........

Rarely do divorced people get back together. It’s perfectly OK that we disagree. Women are beaten by their husbands, get divorced but do not get chummy and go back to get beaten but some do! They are beaten again and end up in morgues That’s what I see and know! Sorry but soup mail won’t work for me as long as the AD is there. I am on an iPad and there is no way I can use it.. not happy. Pangie, you can use the poen forma to soup me.

A song for this poem, it would be nice to add it on, Frank Sinatra …. “ the second time around” ))) Mazel Tov! Thank you for explaining their experiences and soup mailing me here I don’t mind at all, I was able to get one litter out last night. But I am visually impaired and it’s really funny and makes it really hard to do for me.. thank you for being my friend. Pangie xx

Thanks for your note. Good to see you. Some leave because they are beaten. None of my friends were beaten. They all wanted a new man. Two remarried the same one/divorce the second time. Have a great/wonderful day...........
