Sweeter than gelato
and everybody knows
her mama must've found her
down in the grove
way down
she's sweet as spring
full in bloom
like angels’ trumpets
all in tune
playin' hallelujah
under a strawberry moon
sweeter than summer wind
dancing through summer cane
in the sweet magnolia rain
I'm just sayin'
she could have been
a circus show
a holiday parade
the ocean's serenade
and I'm amazed
she's sweeter than the dawn
the chorus in the song
of the setting sun
shining on
more brilliant than the day
the brilliance of her way
is why
the heavens say
"there she goes!
shining like a star,
lovely as a rose"
sweeter than gelato
and everybody knows

Awwww - so sweet
Yes she is!
I really loved this!
IVe began studying poetry writing over the past few days.
I always wrote, since i was eleven.
I didn’t really pay attention to the
Different types of poetry I just wrote my personal experiences and tried to make them melodically flow to please the reader.
When you start looking closely at these various styles of writing, and then try learn the rules to each one.,
I find myself struggling with words and then counting them to make sure they’re within the guidelines of that paticuler poetry style.
Do you have any thoughts on the subject?
I don't have a knowledge of the styles (traditional/recognized). But I have noticed by reading different poems here, that their functions make can make a read go very smoothly, or excitingly. I usually fumble through phrasing and meter trying to best communicate each idea within the poem while trying to let the ideas transition smoothly, I think?
Glad you liked it btw! And thank you for saying so. Now I kind of want to research styles.
