Names of animal groupings always caught my ear.
There’s a clutter of spiders in my house each year.
A chattering of starlings will make your ears splinter
A murder of crows they make a killing each winter.
You have a caravan of camels and a barrel of monkeys,
Down on the quays there’s a shuffle of junkies.
The lions and the peacocks share some pride,
Armies of caterpillars, side by side.
Alligators, well, they have a congregation.
Yesterday was Brian Cowen’s inauguration.
It might said that a swarm descended,
But that would make a grist of bees offended.
If it’s a crash of rhinos, and a bloat of hippos
What would you call a large gathering of biffos?
