Tough as a nail, with hearts as big as a whale
Artists always on call, loyal, dependable to all
Undivided in trust, they show wisdom are just
Reliant and true blue  but  self  indulgent   too
Unequivocally  has power to  live for the  hour
Stubborn in sorrow  this  bull  named   El Toro

Excellent description, Kethry... it makes me remember and very much miss an old friend who was all those things. *S*

It will arise in perfect light.

How clever ... is that a double acrostic?

Exemplary piece of the acrostic style, Kethry. Thanks.
Btw, I'm not just "full of bull" for no reason.
