Entering the other side,
Counting the days I left behind,
Lost in the knowledge of what I’d find,
In the depths of my curious mind,
Piecing together power and stride,
Savoring the ride,
Eclipsing the hide

Thoughts on Vocal and the way the world is
"Death cannot stop true love, only delay it." – Wesley in The Princess Bride. I decided to come back to Vocal on a very cold and dark night at the end of December. I had been, and still am, convalescing from a horrible staph infection that had gone misdiagnosed for months. This, paired with the increasing challenges of being healthy, making the best choices for my co-parented child, being a wife, and being a director at a new job, was a lot to manage.

Reading around to learn about acrostic poetry. Savoring the ride - eclipsing the hide, that says it all. Nicely Done!!
Interesting choices you made for this one. The consistent rhyme starting from "side" to "behind", along with the meaning imbued in each line, makes for a telling rhythm. I think I like the last line best. I barely see "hide" used as a noun in poetry. It was nice to come across that usage. Great read! ;)
Great poem!
