Tranquility

T-roubles melt away in this
R-emote place.
A-vidly my eyes take in the beauty,
N-othing but the waves can be heard
Q-uietly rippling to the shore.
U-ndisturbed I sit and
I-ndulge my senses,
L-ong slow breaths,
I-n and out.
T-ogether mind and soul
Y-ielding into peace.

You are so good at this Acrostic format Elizabeth, and as for the poem itself you've captured the ocean in its tranquil state beautifully. A well deserved 7

Hello Elizabeth. I love the ocean and before turning the page I didn't know it would be about her. You have captured her essence wonderfully. I love this. Also excellent work the the Acrostic format. It is hard to make flow but you executed that aspect with skill. Well done entirely.

WoW! Beautifully done Elizabeth. It isn't easy to produce an Acrostic that flows this well. Beautiful imagery. There is a restful feel to this piece. Nicely done. God Bless and a big 7 from me. JB
