A cauldron of hawks in the clouds they roam,as a memory of elephants find their way home.
A parliament of owls sit and make laws,as a clutter of cats sharpen their claws.
A bevy of swans quietly talk,as a gaggle of geese rudely squawk.
A mob of whales gracefully glide,as a shoal of mackerel wisely hide.
A shrewness of bees choose their flowers,as a rabble of butterflies flutter for hours.
A slurry of foxes plan the nights’prowl,as a pack of hounds collectively howl.
A quiver of cobras standing up straight,as an ambush of tigers patiently wait.
A congregation of crocodiles hangs around,as a crash of hippos make a frightful sound.
A prickle of hedgehogs snuffle around,as a lounge of lizards sleep on the ground.
A sliver of sharks swim quick as can be,as a bed of clams lie still under sea.
A cackle of hyenas sing out of key,as a troop of mankeys hide in the tree.
