Its fun to stretch and see how you can play with words and forms...

[Dayran]

A great emphasis on silence and the thoughts it may engender in a person.Nice!

[Cassie Fraga]

WARREN!!!! I love the alliteration!!! always gives a piece that extra something!! You did a great job on this one!! **tips my lyical wand to you**

[Mockingbird]

a very sad poem in narration but rich in alliteration. there's a name for poems that start with each letter of the word. that was a brilliant accomplishment of it. reminds me of the first lines in nabokov's lolita, and also what a person sounds like when they're manic. great poem.

[Kenneth The Poet]

Powerful bit of alliteration I see, and I smile with glee.

[Regrets]
