Poetry has been a love of mine for decades. I have been writing poetry and songs for over forty years (yes, started in the womb.)
In April 2013, a friend challenged me to write 30 poems in 30 days as part of National Poetry Month. What a great challenge. One I will definitely do again.
I can’t explain how much I love alliteration. If you read my post Beyond Belief you would find it full of alliteration.
Another tool of poetry is anadiplosis. It is usually where the ending words of a stanza begin the next stanza. This can also be found verse to verse. This form of poetry is found within my song “Gone Away,” which you may find on my site, and within the poem “Play All Day,” shown below. I hope you enjoy it.
Play All Day
Kaci Rigney
Piano to play
Play all-day
Day and Night
Night ‘til bright
Bright with sun
Sun for fun
Fun for all
All in all
All to sing
Sing to bring
Bring the smile
Smile a while
While I play
Play all-day
