brambly blooms
the wild blackberry blooms gleam
stars bursting ‘midst a sea of green
promise plump berries
fruit fit for faeries
be wary
barbs unseen

NaPoWriMo 2024 Day 26 Challenge: write a poem that involves alliteration, consonance, and assonance. Alliteration is the repetition of a particular consonant sound at the beginning of multiple words. Consonance is the repetition of consonant sounds elsewhere in multiple words, and assonance is the repetition of vowel sounds. Traci Brimhall’s poem “A Group of Moths” provides a great example of these poetic devices at work, with each line playing with different sounds that seem to move the poem along on a sonorous wave.
