Beautiful butterflies
Balancing by botanical brilliance
Beside Bethlehem’s broken boundaries
Bloodstained boulders
Behold bad bureaucracies
Bought by belligerent brutes
Bearing bayonets
Building barricades
Bursting bombs
Baffled bystanders besieged
Bartholomew beseeching
Brotherly blessings below
Beggars became boasters
Boding burdens beyond belief
Bewildered bodies bowing
Because battlefields bury bones
Bringing back bottled bereavements
Battered boys
Barren bosoms
Bitter brides
O’ but beautiful butterflies
Balance by botanical brilliance
Bordering black-lined Bethlehem.
