Subtle Revelations [Acrostic Experiment]











Acrostic: "A poem or series of lines in which certain letters, usually the first in each line, form a name, motto, or message when read in sequence."

Can you see it? What does it say?


Subtle Revelations

Letters delivered by the setting sun.
Inconsequential patterns painted across the evening sky,
Fighting desperately for our attention in their last few moments.
Eager to draw our eyes towards heaven.

Is it truly acceptable to gaze upon
Such marvelous wonders?

Born from feeble imagination.
Unable to free itself from reality's
Tyrannical rigidity.

Are we honestly so set in our ways?

Divided endlessly by creeds and beliefs.
Rarely just, yet always a beacon of hope,
Etched into stone to be forever remembered yet
Always forgotten.
Memories set adrift on an ocean of dreams.
