Rubber Baby Buggy Bumpers

Alliterative adjectives Are like poetic additives That rearrange raw rhythmic rhyme So sonnets sound more-so sublime. “Aggrieved aggressors,” “Angry Aunts” “Outraged oppressors,” “Haunted haunts” Are all alliterative bits That prod poor poems into hits. Consider how this very verse Without alliteration would be worse. For con-sequential consonants Create quaint quotes of consequence.
