Bb is for Black

Black is a kind of spooky color you see a lot in October.
But lots of ordinary things are black, too.


Black All Around
by Patricia Hubbell

Look high, look low, look everywhere
The wonderful color black is there
The letters that live on each page of a book,
The hole in the ground that's a ittle mole's nook.
The headlines in the daily news.
Patent leather party shoes.
Clarinets and piano keys.
The fuzzy stripes on bumblebees.

Can you find as many black things as I did?
Happy Black Day!
Love, Grandma
