Seun Ogedengbe Poet Couplet

My Sweetheart

Her fares
Feed my fainting frame.

Her genial gesture
Graces my gut.

Her beauty
Bands my body.

Her care
Clads my clay.

Her spirituality
Spurs my spirit.

Her tender talk
Tickles my thought.

Her conviviality
Is my compliment.

Sheri Fresonke Harper December 26, 2013 at 2:50 PM Seun, good use of consonance in this lovely poem. I like the contrast between the sweetheart and you, but perhaps one more stanza (not required). Congratulations on your win.
