Pensive Poets

Perpetually praising poet's perforce presence,
particular poets persevere penniless, proudly,
people present peonies, prizes,
poet's perennial prose, poesy,
pacific, provocative, purposeful,
painstakingly perfected, promising,
poet's prolific in populace,
platinum pens poised,
paper primed, persnickety,
pensive pinnacle power of poetic peace,
and posterity.

Very alliterative for sure. Not so hard to read out loud though. Thanks for sharing and stopping by my page with congratulations. Sara K

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts, so wisdom-filled, through your unique poetic style. Welcome back to Poetry Soup. I welcome you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.

Dear Regina, your alliteration is simply amazing. Every line a gem of poetic verse. I especially liked “platinum pens poised,/paper primed, persnickety” -awesome! I just commented on your fantastic Poe tribute poem too :) So great to see you at the Soup again! Warmest wishes my friend.. ~Susan

Hi Jan, I'm so sorry to hear of this. I just came back to the Soup this evening. I pray things become more peaceful for the poets affected by the negativity. I hope you're having a lovely autumn.
