Karen Jones Poet Acrostic

The Situation

Two men have my attention 
Hazel hearts rise like orange sunshine
Even my favorite songs mention

Situation where true love resides
Images of me with the first king
The one who’s been waiting 4 years
Unfortunately another kente king
Appreciates me but is not near
Turquoise time will denim design 
Intimate test of hearts and minds
Olympics of lavender lovers
Needing one more than the other

Deb M July 8, 2024 at 5:05 AM Oh dear what a dilemma “still” haha having two lovely men in pursuit of you!! Seriously though…..search deep into that sweet heart of yours Karen and l am sure will know!! Its like watching “The Bachelorette” on T.V!! Haha…..Can’t wait for the finale…..the final ceremony to see who you pick!! Hehe……Debx Karen Jones July 8, 2024 at 5:31 AM Hi Deb if I pick I will screw up! lol I will let time God and red flags decide! Or maybe not pick either! And act like a man enjoy having cake and eating it too! Hahahaha

Tonye George July 7, 2024 at 8:23 AM Oh well Karen, can't you just have them both? Why do we have to choose? They both would make your heart flutter on different days. Hahaha. The one that stops trying is the one you toss. Karen Jones July 7, 2024 at 11:34 AM Agreed but it’s complicated by distance! I think Silent One was correct in that you weren’t in love with the first if you fell for the next one. Still I like your suggestion because these men show me red flags occasionally lol Karen Jones July 7, 2024 at 11:34 AM The one in California asked me to live with him! Red flag. I don’t shack up

Jerry Brotherton July 7, 2024 at 4:54 AM Such a Delima, my friend. Perhaps you may never have to choose which one. Karen Jones July 7, 2024 at 7:07 AM Jerry I think time will tell but as Silent One says the latter is chosen because I wouldn’t have fallen for the new king if I loved truly the first king!

Gershon Wolf July 6, 2024 at 8:46 PM 'Turquoise time will denim design // Intimate test of hearts and minds' -- just an exquisite couplet, Karen! And the next one, 'Olympic...other,' also memorable. This is going into my faves. Bravo, Gershon Karen Jones July 7, 2024 at 12:48 AM I’m honored you faved it Gershon! Thanks

Silent One July 6, 2024 at 8:29 AM Oh is that still going on? You know what Johnny Depp, said? He said choose the one you fell in love with as if you loved the other, you would not love this one... Tonye George July 7, 2024 at 8:22 AM Very true. Silent. A good perpersptive. Karen Jones July 6, 2024 at 9:30 AM Thanks Silent One! lol yeah it’s complicated. But you made it simple.

Sara Kendrick July 6, 2024 at 7:33 AM Interesting work. Maybe a poem written for a contest if so, it reads like a good contender to me. Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us and for dropping by my page. Sara K Karen Jones July 6, 2024 at 9:29 AM I don’t do contests since I’ve been studying piano Sara. I unfortunately write usually from experience and thanks for reading.
