Special Words

SPECIAL    WORDS


Animals have their special words
Birds don’t gather in herds
Hippy-fox sex doesn’t happen in a fox-in
Oxen don’t gather in flocks-en
But whales do gather in schools 

. . . . And raindrops do gather  in pools

Awesome imagery and a compelling message, Syd. If only humans could learn to live like the animals, we would be far happier. Love, Carolyn
