Hi Jatog! This poem is awesome! I always loved acrostic poems, but I am also always very impressed whenever I see a double acrostic poem. I've written a few of those myself, so I understand how challenging they can be sometimes. After I read yours, I was in awe at a few of the ending words which you found, such as the word, 'tea', which ends in an, 'a'. I don't think I would have thought of that one myself.

I wondered who this poem is about. Is it a daughter? A wife? At first I wondered if it were about Marilyn Monroe, as so many write about that.


I like the theme throughout this poem. I felt that it was a theme of inspiration, optimism, and advice. Again, to talk about the reference to, 'tea', I always feel that tea can be soothing. In fact, it's what I choose for the end of my night, so I get the calming imagery you succeeded in expressing.

I loved the line about the warmth of the sun being like the spirit's solar ray. Our inner spirit should shine with positivity.

If it were me, I would have put the beginning and ending letters in bold or a different color, but it really doesn't need that. The poem stands clearly a double acrostic as it is. Very well done.
