Little Lovers

Little lovers
Laying low
Landscaping leverage
Lips, legs, loins
Ladies lusting
Left laid lightly
Lawlessly late
Limitless lubrication
Literally luring long logs
Lucky large lords
Leave lessons
Labor, load, leave
Landing legacy liabilities


Labor


Legally lactating lunch
Lioness links
Lessened liberty
Lithium lozenges
Lists, looks, lines
Leveled logic
Life launched
Loyal liberation
Latency locked
Lowering leftover liveliness
Logos lie
Luck leaving
Love lost

About the Poem:

This is a heart-wrenching poem that follows the line of conception, birth, and after birth of a child. Every word might begin with the letter L but is also written to convey meaning beyond what is written. (She wants a child so bad, she has one, then it's so much work that latency takes over.)
