Betty Bee, bet Bobby Blake,
that Bobby Blake wouldnt
beat Betty Bee, in a race.

Bobby Blake boasted,
because Bobby Blake knew
that Betty Bee could probably
beat him.

But, Bobby Blake, decided to
try and beat Betty Bee
anyway.

At the starting gate,
Betty & Bobby barely
looking at each other,
1.2.3. GOOOOOO
Betty is ahead by a sliver
with Bobby behind, the crowd
roars....
Bobby Blake starting to catch
up to Betty Bee, and we have a
winner!!!

Bobby Blake beat Betty Bee,
barely by an inch.

Bobby Blake, proudly
boasting by the crowd!
But bragging before
the crowd, for beating
Betty Bee, begins to
belittle Betty Bee,
causing the crowd to
BOOOO Bobby Blake,

And making Bobby
Blake feel badly
for boasting that
he beat Betty Bee.

And in the end ...
there are no winners.

Because Betty Bee &
Bobby Blake became
bad enemies.

Bye be back...

I like this .. reminds me of a story that a teacher once told me and he would have said ...

Betty Bee came in second and Bobby Blake came in next to last!

Oh, this is too cute and a real tongue twister, dear dreamgal. But there is also a very important lesson in your write. You did a great job!

Love,
