Nostalgic

Never can dreaded oppressive oblivion Order the blotting out of parents’ legacy poured into Soul and heart of mine with memories so precious Testifying faithful fellowship, forever triumphant Affirming love, affectionately prevalent amidst nostalgia Lingering in family bonds, beyond the temporal Glowing against departure toward eternity --- bringing Influence upon goodness’ impact, smiting “missing you” ennui Cheering by God’s grace* along home-sweet-home lyric. *Psalm 84:11 For the LORD God is a sun and shield: the LORD will give grace and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly. December 3, 2020 3rd place, "ANY NEW ACROSTIC ABOUT NOSTALGIA" Poetry Contest Sponsored by Line Gauthier; judged on 1/9/2021.

superb and beautifully crafted the acrostic on NOSTALGIC~ it's also a brilliant acrostic form thru first and last letters of each line; I enjoyed
