Tautograms are texts in which every word begins with the same letter. A poetry challenge inspired me to flex some creative muscles for this fun piece.

Aching among amber Asters,
Aureate allure, all abloom and afire,
An artist agonizes at aimless alabaster.
Adrift amid absent affirmation,
Abashment and anxiety abounding,
An artist awaits angelic afflation.
Aspirations abandoned, almost,
As an artist airs an ardent appeal,
At an Aster altar, an apparition approached.
Ancient and airy, alighting alongside,
An artist asks and an angel abides.
All apprehension abruptly allayed,
An artist’s affliction absolved away.
An artist awakens,
Awareness aroused,
Artistic ambition audaciously abounds.
Avidly animated,
An alchemist activated.
Auric acrylic adeptly applied,
An abstraction awesomely actualized.
At an angel's alliance, all angst abated,
An artist’s aptitude authenticated.
Ability acknowledged anew as astute,
Afflation and artistry are always absolute.
