Once upon a time,
The letter A took a walk.
She saw the letter B
And boy, she had a shock.
**
B was round where A was not,
And A was quite appalled.
But the letter B laughed at her,
And said “Try being small!”
**
When A became a she realized
That she had some roundness, too.
She sought out B and asked him if
He’d be her friend, real and true.
**
So A and B had lots of fun
And paired up for many words,
Like abbey, abort and able,
Abolish, abet and absurd.
**
They were friends for many years,
And they met some other letters,
And they learned never to think
Of themselves as anyone’s betters.
**
A and B liked C and D,
And many others as well,
They were a band of twenty-six,
The spellers and the spelled.
**
But A and B have special status,
They’re nobler than the others,
For the alphabet is named after
Their great-great-Latin-grandfathers.

i really like this, it made me giggle 🙂
uhm… Alpha and Beta are ancient Greeks… but the Romans copied everything from the Greeks, so I understand the confusion with Latin! 😉
Lovely poem! 😀
