Brenda

The bitty boat is on the beam
                         Brenda bunks down to bed to dream
                           Boris the boatman booms the sea
                        Breaking the breakers like bumblebee.

                      'The bull of a man the bloke with the oat'
                       Brenda bids up the book with the quote
                   'Boris blasts my breasts a brave sailor's note
                  And asks me for a bucket to bail out the boat.'

                     Boris was birthed in Brenda's brain-crease
                 And buried in a bedlam as he burnt the bridge.

This is outstanding alliteration poetry, Rajat! It made me smile, laugh, sigh in awe and wonderment of your masterfully crafted poetic expressions. And you penned a great tale too. Splendid poem. Pure poetry, my friend. Love and joy always.
