I haven't felt brave enough to try this style yet but I have to say you pull it off very well. Though, at least to my reading, the final line seems to contain 6 syllables?
Either way, you succeed in bringing forth a cohesive message, which isn't the easiest thing to accomplish with this form :)

Hmm you are right. Dang.
Comment from ravenblack
definitely not a fan of this form as total alliteration seems to serve little purpose in a short form other than to leave the poem muddled - but unlike others I have read, you do not let alliteration dictate the entire poem over sense/meaning. good job. still, though, a silly form ( my opinion)

I tried to make it more difficult by holding the alliteration in all lines and making it a tongue twister, but I tend to agree with you that it is a somewhat silly format. On the other hand, I like to vary my style, and it makes an entertaining exercise. It certainly should not become a staple, but is another tool in the Muse's tool box. I like diversity.

Excellent artwork to complement your poem. I loved you used this new form that DRG invented. Nice how you stuck to all the same letters in all your lines as you didn't have to.

Comment from sunnilicious
Love and lust should go together. Then all couples would find their happily ever after. Enjoyable tongue twister with all those L words. Nicely done. Great!

Thank you Sunni, I found it hard to read orally too.
Comment from Capricorn30
A well-penned poem on the lessons of love;
Imperative advice we need to heed, strong words of wisdom.
I need to attempt the "5A" format--thank you for introducing me to this form of poetry.

Thank you Capricorn. Give it a try. Note that not every line has to be the same letter, you can have line one alliterating the letter S, line two, the letter B, and line three the letter B, if you want. Just all words in the poem must be an alliteration. Give one a try.

Comment from 9999pool
Just loved the "L" alliteration and the words are weaved so intricately. Love an lust - how much difference can we find in them. Loathing loss is the lesson learnt.
Simply outstanding write. Out of sixers - so a virtual ****** for this excellent write and well done! Bravo!
Have a great day writing.
Cheerio, Ritchie

Well, this is an interesting new style for sure. I never count syllables but it appears that you have it down pat. Good Job. God loves you and so do I.
