Collections In Verse

Bevy of swans in a sea-fowl cloud, starling mumuration,whispering aloud. Wray of quail,where teal spring, tiding of magpie,as larks nesting, cling. Nightingale watch a hover of crows, herd of wrens,hosting sparrows. Flight of doves,lapwing deceit, charm of finches,swallows sweet. Kindle of kittens,knot of toads, a yoke of oxen shed their load. Den of snakes,skulk with fox, shires stabled and boxed. Business of ferrets,labour with moles, span of mules in a string of foals. Harrass of horse,husk of hares, rake of colts with a stud of mares. Drove of cattle,with a tribe of goats, downs of sheep,pack of stoats. Spider cluster in a thatch, brood of game,hatched,matched and despatched.
