The fiery fluttering phoenix

A fiery phoenix
freely
fluttering
It’s withering
white wings
of innocence
amongst the
sullen silken air .
preparing
to shed away
all worldly
cares and cries
as it repeatedly
replies with the
gallant guiltless
guild of
goodbyes.

Alliteration

I absolutely adore alliteration. Lol.

as it repeatedly
replies with the
gallant guiltless
guild of
goodbyes.

That’s really good,
Tim

Thank you

When I do alliteration in poetry I usually alliterate 1 or two letters
In order for it to have a good flow anything more than two it would too convoluted and lose its flow. Like for example

The hectic humdrum hound
with his cynical snout
solemnly sneering
at the ground .
