Alligators, apples, and ants,

Astonishingly ambled, advancing askance,

Admiringly alert, always at attention,

Angrily attacking any antagonistic apprehension.

🟒

Beautiful butterflies, buzzing bees,

Bouncing and boisterously behaving with ease,

Bringing bright blossoms, bountifully bestowing,

Balmy breezes, blissful, breathtaking, and glowing.

🟒

Cackling crows, calling out their cries,

Calmly cajoling, conversing, and wise,

Coexisting, collaborating, creating and caring,

Contentedly communing, never competing or daring.

🟒

Delightful dolphins, dancing in the deep,

Diving and darting, daring to keep

Daydreams and desires, divinely defined,

Daringly determined, destined to be aligned.

🟒

Elegant elephants, enormous and wise,

Ever exploring, eager to surprise,

Endlessly entertaining, with trunks up high,

Enchanting and entrancing, as they gracefully glide by.

🟒

Fierce foxes, ferociously fleet,

Fast and focused, never admitting defeat,

Fierce and fearless, faithful and true,

Fulfilling their fates, and never feeling blue.

🟒

Gentle gazelles, gracefully glide,

Gathering in groups, side by side,

Grazing and growing, glowing with grace,

Glimpsing the greatness of God's embrace.

🟒

Huge hippos, happily wallow,

Happily hiding, never feeling hollow,

Honoring their habitats, huddling in the heat,

Harmoniously healing, happy and complete.

🟒

Incredible iguanas, intriguingly innocent,

Intrepidly investigating, incredibly intelligent,

Inquisitive and inimitable, impossibly imaginative,

Innovative and intuitive, always imaginative.

🟒

Jubilant jaguars, joyfully jostling,

Jabbing and jousting, never feeling hostile,

Jovial and jolly, just like a jest,

Jumping and jiving, just like the best.

🟒

Keen kangaroos, kindly and kind,

Kissing and cuddling, always on the mind,

Kicking and keeping, courageously kind,

Knowing and knowledgeable, never blind.

🟒

Lively lemurs, leaping with glee,

Loving and laughing, free as can be,

Loud and lusty, listening to the land,

Living in harmony, hand in hand.

🟒

Magical moose, majestically marching,

Moving and meandering, making their marking,

Mighty and majestic, magnificently made,

Majestic and masterful, never to fade.

🟒

Nimble newts, never near danger,

Navigating nature, never a stranger,

Noble and neat, naturally nifty,

Nurturing and nourishing, never thrifty.

🟒

Outstanding ocelots, often seen,

On the prowl, oh so keen,

Obedient and obliging, to the call of the wild,

Overcoming obstacles, in every mile.

🟒

Proud peacocks, parading with pride,

Preening and prancing, with nothing to hide,

Peaceful and poised, perfectly placed,

Pampered and protected, with grace and good taste.

🟒

Quirky quails, quaintly quiet,

Quick and quiet, with nothing to try it,

Quintessential and quality, always on cue,

Quiet and quirky, just like a statue.

🟒

Radiant rabbits, running in a row,

Rapid and reckless, with nowhere to go,

Rabidly reaping, rejoicing and right,

Riding and running, under the moon's light.

🟒

Silly squirrels, scurrying and shy,

Savvy and sassy, without being sly,

Spectacular and splendid, with skills to spare,

Smiling and sparkling, without any care

🟒

Terrific tigers, tenacious and tough,

Tackling and tackling, never enough,

Thrilling and thrilling, with every stride,

Truly triumphant, with nothing to hide.

🟒

Unique urchins, undeniably cute,

Unwavering and unyielding, never refute,

Unafraid and understanding, always aware,

Unmatched and unsurpassed, with flair and care.

🟒

Vigorous vultures, valiant and strong,

Vividly visible, all day long,

Venturing and visiting, with wings so wide,

Victorious and valiant, with nothing to hide.

🟒

Wondrous wolves, wild and free,

Wandering and wondering, just like a tree,

Willing and wanting, never to flee,

Withstanding and winning, just like the sea.

🟒

Xenial xerus, xanthic and bright,

Xenophobic, not a single fight,

Xylophonic and xyloid, with nothing to lose,

X-rated and X-treme, with nothing to choose.

🟒

Youthful yaks, yawning and yearning,

Yearning and yielding, never concerning,

Yielding and yelping, young and wise,

Yonder and yapping, with sparkling eyes.

🟒

Zany zebras, zigzagging and zipping,

Zestful and zealous, never skipping,

Zonal and zodiacal, with nothing to hide,

Zooming and zapping, with pride and stride.

    Nice, but some of your poems don't all start with the same letter.
