The Beacon Beckons

Does a banished beacon beckon? But of course all beacons beckon But only briefly if not brightly Though never as boldly as the baritone Before balancing bagpipes blowing ballads But it’s got backbone and backfires Unlike the babbling bellow of a baboon Baffling unbelievably because it’s so beautiful Below bitter backlash in its blackened background It behooves that a backtalking boyband backstage Betwixt a balmy bamboozled ballet bandstand Would betray benign bountiful bequests Between a bashful baroness’ baptism by barnacle And a bastardly barrage of barroom banter But yes all in all the banished beacon does beckon AP: Honorable Mention 2020 Submitted on July 1, 2019 for CONTEST NO 620 WITH ALLITERATION STYLE THEREIN sponsored by BRIAN STRAND - RANKED 2ND Originally posted on April 27, 2019
