Morning Grief

Each night he is stout, imperishable	
Conviction built of granite
When he awakes… sheer gloom

Natalie, Wow You helped me have a little more understanding of the Kimo form of Poetry.You are very versatile in Your Poetry. I'm trying an Acrostic for Francines Contest. How long will it take me to learn all the Forms when I do not even understand most Forms of Poetry. Respectfully kenny
