Alliteraton (Poem)

Tweet

Alliteration is where several (most) words in a sentence/phrase begin with the same letter. The poem I wrote using this style is also an "ABC" style poem, which itself is a short version of an Abecedarian. While the Abecedarian has lines (or stanzas) which start with all twenty-six letters of the alphabet, the ABC usually only has five lines (though I suppose that the poet could use the same pattern with stanzas too) which means the beginnings of the lines only go to E. (I maintain, however that the poem could go further than "E" and still be and "ABC" poem, as long as it didn't go all the way to Z). My Alliteration/ABC poem is below. ;) ~*~ Apples and Anise Ben brings butter; Cup of cracker crumbs Don't disperse dill ! Everything ends being edible. © Stacey Uffelman 9-22-15
