Sometimes - An Anaphora Poem

Sometimes the mountain, it just can't be climbed;
Sometimes the day, just never seems to end.
Sometimes reality's, more suspect than mime;
Sometimes the answer's, just round the bend.
Sometimes the solution gets lost in the thought;
Sometimes the parable is blown in the wind.
Sometimes we don't necessarily, do that which we ought;
Sometimes man's vanity, is his ultimate sin.

Actually this is an Anaphora. I wasn't certain how to place this one. Thank you so much for reading and sending me your comment

Is this another form of acrostic poem? The one I read is where the 1st letter of each line spells a word which when read vertically forms the title of the poem. I don't think I have written one, but seems like a fun poem to write.

Thank you Josefina, The form is actually that of an Anaphora. However, there is no allowance for this style in the list.
