What Did You Call Me ?

I’ve always had a fascination for collective nouns for animals. I’ve recently read a wonderful book called ‘The Frog With Self Cleaning Feet And Other Extraordinary Tales From The Animal World‘ by Michael Bright.

At the back of the book he had a list of collective nouns for animals. Here are just a few of my favourites :

Obstinacy of Buffalo

Glorifying of Cats

Intrigue of Kittens

Storytelling of Crows

Flamboyance of Flamingos

Bouquet of Pheasants (Taking off)

Stare of Owls

Intrusion of Coackroaches

Smack of Jellyfish

Piteousness of Turtledoves

Venue of Vultures

Wisp of Snipe

Here are 50 more !

Summer Song

(or Don’t You Wish Your Girlfriend Read a Book Like Me?)

Where’d my book go GQ?

The one I lent to you?

‘A Midsummer Night’s Dream’

You said you liked the theme

It was a first edition

Now I am on a mission

I dig that book a lot

You need to drop it like its hot

Give me back my book

It was meant to be read

You used its pages

To do dope instead

I read it in the sun

chillin’ like a villain

I am never lonely

Shakespeare is my only

Thought you were a John Blaze

A Mc Dreamy snack

But you’re not off the hizzy

Buster, you just wack

Now you need to run the jewels

Or you’re gonna lose

Literature bites

It’s how I got my stripes

You’re not ‘off the hook’

Give me back my book

We had a trump tight season

Now I’m out of reason

My trust was at the max

Now your ass is grass

Summer is over

And so are we

Never a lender or a borrower be.
