School starts tomorrow. It's been probably the most eventful summer of my life. And I had some of the happiest moments of my life as well as some hard moments. I definitely had the most spectacular trip of my life, and I'll try to post a handful of pictures from Alaska soon. Anyway, there have been hard times toward the end, but a very valuable summer, I think. Onto the poem.
This poem is from a happier parts of my summer. Anyway, I thought I'd share it since I did a lot of experimenting with vocabulary and wordplay and punctuation and such. Here goes:
ah.
This‘Love-spilling,’
heartsThumping with red’angelic sighs
and adolescent eye”lids silently.whispering Happysecrets choking on the Idea-of-Moonbeams and chemicalEcstasy,hormonal-Joy (the richest

I like the experimentation you did with the wording and spacing.
As per usual, you poem is excellent.
Punctuation for the win!
I agree with Bookish that it's excellent, just as all of your poems are.
