Steady Shadows
A tautogram
Serenading starlings swiftly soar,
Sapphire skies share silent stories,
Sinking suns signal solemn soirees,
Swaying shadows scatter, softly smothered.
Sculpted statues stand, stoic soldiers,
Silent sentinels, steadfastly shielding,
Sacred sanctuaries, secrets, sorrows,
Solemnly safeguarding silent souls.
Sensuous scents, sweet symphonies,
Swaying soothingly, swirling senses,
Savoring stolen, somber seconds,
Soulful songs soothing shattered spirits.
Seeking solace, sequestered solitudes,
Silent spaces, shared sympathies,
Serenity sought, surrendering strife,
Sacred simplicity, sublime surrender.

Still looking for that item of interest to aliens?
Entries into the Vocal Extraterrestrial challenge, so far, have been a lot of fun for the reader and writer alike. If you haven't already done so, or think you can come up with another poetic masterpiece, you still have seven whole days left to have a go and make yourself a winner. Yay!
