Bee's B

Bright yellow buttercups
blooming in Bonneville
bit off by Bernard
our blustery Brahma bull.

Back in the barn
baby sheep are bleating,
blue birds are singing,
black beetles are eating,
and baby bunnies are munching
those  blooming butter cups
to a tune buzzed by bumblely bees.

     This poem uses a lots of "B" words.  when it is repeated at the beginning of the work, that is called alliteration.  When it is repeated in the middle or end of the word, that is consonance.  Can you pick your own letter from the alphabet and write a poem repeating that sound often in the poem..
