Juliet Ligon Poet Alliteration

Shh, Speak Shrouded Sounds Slower

Shh, surrender silent sorrows.
Subconsciously slip into stillness, 
sedately surrounded in serenity's song.
Slumber satisfied, slithering softly between 
silky soap scented sanitized sheets. 
Soak up summaries of summers spent splashing at 
seashores, sandles sifting through salt scented sand, 
as sapphire skies shine splendidly.
Scores of silver seagulls soar stunningly 
above saltwater seaweed scenery.
Suddenly snorkeling with seahorses, 
you somehow become the studied subject.
Swimming in submarine schools, scarcely secluded, 
you become someone's significant someone. 
Spryly spinning synchronously side by side 
someone special, sprinkled in sentimentality, 
speaking shrouded sounds, 
you shift seamlessly into sound sleep. 
"Speak some sense slower," some seahorse shrieks. 
Sensibly speak shrouded sounds slower, softer,
so she can sleep sometime soon.

Sandra Adams February 14, 2020 at 8:29 PM excellent alliteration Juliet... this is one style I haven't really tried it... maybe one day... love this … Happy Valentine's day... hugs Juliet Ligon February 15, 2020 at 2:52 PM Thanks, Sandra. I was in a surrealist state when I wrote this. I'm sure you'd do a beautiful job if you gave it a try. Happy Valentine's Day. XOXO

Silent One February 9, 2020 at 1:41 PM This is excellent alliteration, you must have included almost every word beginning with S.. Juliet Ligon February 9, 2020 at 3:25 PM Thanks, Silent One. I was sleepy a few days ago and started seeing the letter "s" everywhere.
