Edward Ibeh Poet Acrostic

Notes About The Poem

My Sanctuary

My sanctuary, my world...I've found in...
   YOU, my dearest. You alone hold the...

     Skeleton key to this heart of mine
 And you leave me perpetually breathless
  Never let me go when you hold me tight
Cradle me; wrap me in your silken embrace
   Take me by the hand, and seek shelter...
    Under my umbrella of comfort. I'll love...
And cherish you, and be your sanctuary, too
       Rest safely in my enveloping arms
           Yours affectionately, Edward.

Reason A. Poteet August 10, 2019 at 9:38 AM Fabulous acrostic, Edward. I like the centering; it throws us off the usual course and makes your piece stand out as not just another acrostic. Edward Ibeh August 11, 2019 at 8:26 AM Thank you, Reason A.:-)
