Poetic Form 23: Tautogram

Stay Here

She sees
silent
stars scattered,
searching.
She softly sketches
stenciled satire.
She seeks solitude’s secrets. 
Silently, she says, 
“Stay.”

He hides his hands.
Hardships hampers
his home.
He holds history,
hindering hope.
His hindsight haunts
happiness.
He hollars,
“Here?”

Poetic Form #23: Tautogram
The tautogram form uses the same letter for the beginning of each word in the poem or a variant form uses a different starting letter for each stanza.
