Weeds
a tautogram poem
We wait watching,
wonderous
wager why’s
wishing -
whispered warnings
we want wantonness
wounded waltzes
willful whirlwinds
witnessed witchcraft
winks, wine
weakened
wholeheartedly we walk,
wade within withered wildflowers

Wow!
Ohh found Something interesting here.
You used one of my favorite letters and mention something I love, wildflowers. This is a winner all the way around!
Well-worded...
Well done. I find it interesting how I am drawn to faded wild flowers. Is that a sign I’m coming to terms with the passing of time? 🤔
Wonderful! - Anneliese

This poem has a strong sense of introspection and contemplation. The use of alliteration and repetition of certain words throughout the poem gives it a rhythmic quality, making it feel almost like a chant. Dear [dana stewart], I hope this message finds you well.

Waltz of the Weeds--I can fee the movement in your choice of words---moving back & forth in the breeze.
Great Content
This reads like dreamspeak, incoherent to our conscious ears, yet striking an unconscious chord that says "there's wisdom here" and I linger to find it. Beautiful. Well done.
I like it.

Ahhhhh. Yes. Lovely. 🥰
This is a talent, you are not just slapping words that begin with the same letter together . You create a complete story , a visual.
Great job! I love this particular take on the prompt.
