Nostalgia (my first Acrostic attempt)

Never ending
Oscillations of this
Swinging mind 
Tearful yet tantalising memories
Augment with time
Longing for a beautiful past or
Grief for a loved one sits stored 
In this nostalgic heart
Abandoned, ignored

Written for Acrostic Only

  7. I am with Tan, those last two lines .. are wonderful, as is the whole poem.

    "In this nostalgic heart

    These are unique lines ... Thanks for joining the fun, and I so love this blog skin when I saw it at Navin's place, I almost got it myself. You both have very good taste!

  10. I was confused when I first came here and almost bypassed your poem because I've seen the same template on another blog that I had just commented on. When I started reading the poem, I thought "this isn't the same poem"...lol. Good thing I decided to read. Fantastic write.
