Twenty Sixteen

T The year without us asking His blessing
  W We plucked the grapes for making some wine
   E Everyone would soon start guessing
   N None of us expecting such a decline
   T Things went wrong and then Mother died
   Y Year of our Lord this is not I cried

  S Soon the fields were parched with drought
   I  Instead of rain our hearts cried out
  X   'Xtremely hot and epidemic disease
  T The money gets thin when crime gets fat
  E Everyone seemed angry and impossible to please
  E  End this years destructive act
  N  Nearing the end I decided to change 
 ( S )Spoilt my accrostic - a sonnet I claimed

Premium Member My Accrostic

Another simpleton in this aimless lunacy
Narcotic this reality is  imbibed with but so much i love this narcomania
Occassionally Odious to myself but more so to those i love
Ugly or pretty it does depend on your opinion, to myself just gorgeous
Cabalistic, mystic, unrealistic even spiritual is my altruistic life
Hachalia truly i am but Hananeel i consider your awesome mercy
Eagerness i display to the coming times when your love will make me an immortal
Karezza is the way i will please you who are a killcrop when my love is concerned; our
Adoration is mutual; me i worship your essence and you my ignorance

this poem is an accrostic, but also two separate poems combinied.

Simile, Metaphor (Accrostic)

So close to me there's you, like empty planet 
Inviting me, as life to take its place. 
My soul is bare and hot like melting granite 
Invading you while hard'ning in your space. 
Like waves I rise, like rivers I run deep. 
Engulfing me like ocean storm you rise. 
(May I say this?) I quake that fault you keep 
Enslaved to virtue, now it's stable vice. 
Taboo? No more. Your orbit's changed, you're free! 
Around me you revolve, but it's your choice, 
Perhaps because my world by your decree 
Hovers only powered by your voice. 
Orig'nal's not this sin we gladly share. 
Repel two equals should, but join we dare.
