Sylvie Galloway – Two Acrostic Poems

Poetry

Passion

Poetic license freely expressed,
A keen desire never rests.
Show me,
Survive me,
Imagine the future, move a bit closer.
Only this matters, only this now-
Nothing more, nothing less.

**

Devotion

Daily I give my
Every attention
Vested installments
Of intentional care.
Today towards eternal
Is the time frame that’s needed
Omitting what’s found to be
Needless to you.
Needless to you.
