SP, this is one "L" of a poem! You certainly can find the good and bad and all the emotions of life even in a poem where you limit yourself as you have here. It's making me smile.

Hi Lasaad, what a wonderful poem you have composed using alliterations as a string of necklace. With L words you have created a world of love where you stress the need of loving all, the world, its wonderful beings, flowers of all hues and above all God. I feel you are in love with L as it symbolizes the most uplifting quality- Love and as it is the first letter of your name. "Living every day, listening to the wild. learning life lessons by laughing lifting lethargy, limiting lemons loving our Lord, love one another."... So beautiful and meaningful. Sorry I missed seeing this as POTD. It's a well deserved honor and hearty Congratulations dear friend.

POTD WOOHOO! Correct me if I'm wrong but this could be classified as an alliteration, yes? No matter the label it is as sensual and flowing as a silk dress. Xo

Dear Sotto, many congratulations for this very impressive POTD. Like so many, I’m in awe of the perfect, constant flow of alliteration and especially all the lines beginning with the letter ‘L’. Genius! ‘Learning life lessons by laughing’ - love that line especially and the ending couplet. So much to admire here as always from your amazing, talented pen. So enjoyed reading it today. Thank you for sharing. Blessings to you :)
