Leaving is Loving - A C R O S T I C

Contributed by Elizabeth_Dandy on Thursday, 15th June 2006 @ 09:09:48 AM in AEST
Topic: EmotionalPoetry



L
etting go is sweet some people say
E
ven if it breaks your heart,
A
irports remind of transience,
V
oices of confusion shriek,
I
ncessant roar of engines,
N
owhere can be found a place of quiet.
G
ates open one by one.


I
nevitable are the last heartbreaking good byes,
S
eparation for good is at hand.


L
ong shadows fall on the tarmack
O
nly to increase the intuition of finality,
V
isitors look on detachedly,
I
ndifferent to pangs of anguish,

N
ever guessing what you feel,

G


od alone knows the extent of grief,

Dearest Mother Elizabeth:

Yes, He certainly does know all of that pain... all the grief, and all of those that left Him in His darkest hour... even as He lived and learned the hard way, He came back with love, just like when He departed... your poem can show that we all need to do the very same thing, to learn from pain and grief and instead of exiting, we need to come back and revisit what we learned from that place where we felt so many feelings... I love the style of your poem and all of its message.. title .. all..

Hugs,

Hugs dear Elizabeth- very well put, until one loses someone close (myself, was my husband and my father) it is hard to comprehend the path of grief one walks alone inside.
Peace and Light, Sara
