Dane Ann Smith-Johnsen Poet Alliteration

Until Morning No H E a D S

Vying buck running, rutting,
Crying wolf crooning, yowling.
Prowling puppy pouncing poking.
Nipping nuzzling nibbling.

Quirky bug buzzing by,
Funny frog wooing, wowing,
Witty owl winking, primping, 
Blitzing cockcrow crowing.

Morning moon wincing winking,
Twinkling-twirling tinting 
Pink puffy fog, coloring
Glibly, gifting until morning –
