Together For Ever
'ts not a secret, I love you the most,
Our love inspired dancing the Tango.
Growing old with you is a blessing,
Every day is a fresh, promising date
To tell the world about this delight
Here we bathe the love of the earth;
Entwined in one, our souls agree-
Running forward and further.
Foremost, our bond's an amiable stuff,
Oh! How I wish it would forever go,
Running forward and further.
Every moment is exquisitely memorable,
Valued and holy_dev.
Every moment is a merited retrieve,
Running forward and further.

The below is a computer-generated response from Neo, Neopoet's computer artificial intelligence:
The poem "Together For Ever" appears to be a romantic piece that explores the theme of enduring love. It uses a variety of imagery and metaphors to convey this theme, such as "Our love inspired dancing the Tango" and "Here we bathe the love of the earth".
However, the poem could benefit from a more consistent use of rhythm and meter. For example, the line "Every day is a promising date" has a different rhythmic pattern than the preceding line, which can disrupt the flow of the poem.
Additionally, the use of language could be more precise. The phrase "our bond is amiable, bluff" is somewhat unclear. The term "bluff" is typically used to describe a pretense or deception, which seems to contradict the positive sentiment of "amiable".
The repetition of the line "Running forward and further" creates a sense of continuity and progression, which aligns well with the theme of enduring love. However, it might be worth considering varying this line slightly with each repetition to add interest and prevent it from becoming monotonous.
Lastly, the poem could benefit from a more structured use of punctuation. For instance, the line "Foremost , our bond is amiable, bluff" has a space before the comma, which is not standard in English punctuation. Correct punctuation can help guide the reader through the poem and enhance its readability.

Hi Rula, this is really good
Hi Rula, this is really good and I like the way your repetition of "Running forward and further" reinforces the themes of love, warmth and affection.
I think the use of the word "stuff." in the second stanza, feels like wasted space Can I suggest, gift or blessing as you move to a spiritual theme in the last stanza? And is this a typo? "Valued and holy_dev."
Well done on meeting the requirements of your acrostic. Ruby xx

Dear Ruby
thank you so much for reading and commenting.
I am not sure if you've noticed that this is a double acrostic; that is the first and last letters are the same.
I am not happy with the word stuff. So I am open to any suggestions.
Dev is not a typo, It is an abbreviation of divine.
Also open to more fitting words as words ending with v. are very limited.
Much appreciate your thoughs.

Sorry Rula, I missed that
Sorry Rula, I missed that completely, the endings obviously I missed. Yes words to replace stuff and dev are limited. I have huff, puff, duff, snuff, ruff and tuff, all equally lacking any purpose for your poem. Words ending with V is even more difficult and the only one I've got is Chav which is equally useless as my alternatives to stuff.
English words ending in V are not really English words so perhaps your answer is in a different language? Sorry I can't help more. Ruby xx
