Snow

Trembling in the air, a white star does fall. The soft precipitation has paid us a visit. Quiet skies are unheard. This beauty does not flaunt attention. It simply falls, confident, and unmentioned. As soon as observed, it draws people near. A quiet, content day is soon to appear.

Very soothing, like the snowfall you depict. Help me understand how/where this is alliteration, I always thought it was words together with repetitive/similar consonants, but maybe there are different forms.

I'd consider it free verse but you have some rhyming lines as well - so it's a poetic mutt of sorts :)

I'm still learning too, and I'm sixteen times three :) Alliteration, as I recall it, is like "Tiffany took two tablespoons of tabasco..." where you have each word in a sentence or short phrase starting with the same letter/consonant, or same sounding letters (could be "Sally cites silly circles around the city")

Thank you so much. I'm sixteen, still learning the different forms of poems so thank you for informing. I'm still learning.
