PARADISE

Polished polite people picked purple pears.

Panhandle preachers passed plains plateau.

Pragmatic patients' passionate prayers.

Pinnacle performers posted photo.

♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

Placid politicians pushed poor pretext.

Preeminent powerful parliament.

Powerless persistent paupers perplex.

Palace painted property permanent.

♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

Potent point players playing pro-am.

Philanthropic published poignant Parton.

Principal performed pure pompous poem.

Political pal permitted pardon.

♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

Perfect pneumatic primeval pool place.

Praiseworthy professional players pace.

♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

Writer's notes: PARADISE is entered into the Tautogram Challenge. According to Vocal media, "A tautogram is basically a fancy term for a word game where every word starts with the same letter or sound. It's like alliteration, but taken to the extreme! It can be a fun way to play with language and create a memorable effect in writing or speech, as well as an effective way to challenge yourself as a writer."

My Tautogram poem is written in a Shakespearean or Elizabethan sonnet format. If you are unfamiliar, the format has ten syllables per line with fourteen lines in total. The first twelve lines are in the ABAB, CDCD, and EFEF pattern, with the last two lines (the couplet) in a GG pattern.

Mastering the Shakespearean sonnet can be found here.
