Gotta Love Alliteration Poetry Contest

 

Dear darling, you’re the apple dumpling of my eye, You are early morning’s meadow larks’ lilting cry. You’re my sunshine glimmering as noon time grows nigh. To catch the brilliance of your rays always I will try. You’re sweet spring’s breeze; your susurrations make me sigh. With tenderness to my sweetie always I reply. You’re the bursts of firework flowers; how I hate to see them die, for brightly you illuminate a joyous night of July. You’re September’s scarlet streaks in a dusky sky. Nights grow cold; I hold you close as next to me you lie. You’re the loveliness of leaves which off October's trees colorfully fly. You’re the wonder of a snowy winter day; your beauty nobody can deny. Your loyalty is strong and true; I’ve no need to ever question why you love me as you do. Always you return after every goodbye.

Andrea, you have a way making something sweet. I'm smiling after reading this. I also like how you don't overdo the alliteration. It's just the right touch....like an apple pie plied with the right amount of cinnamon.

Great alliteration. I shy away from premium contests. I simply hate the idea of having a good poem discarded just because there are ten better.

I hate them too. Doesn't mean ten are necessarily better. It's all subjective and sometimes it's judges giving wins to their own peeps.
