A murder of crows is a group of crows.
Crows are members of the family of ravens, magpies, and blue jays. Loud, rambunctious, and very intelligent, crows are most often associated with fear and loathing. They are considered pests by farmers. Many people fear them because of their black feathers and are often associating them with death. But research demonstrated that crows are actually very social and caring creatures, and also among the smartest animals on the planet. Crows can talk in the same way as parrots do, they are pretty good at mimicking human speech.
JIYU-SHI is a Japanese freestyle poetry introduced to European and American poetry between 1912 to 1926. The only rule is to write in 5/7 stanzas, you can write as many stanzas as you like. I recommend keeping complete thoughts in each line and connecting the lines grammatically for excellent flow. click here to read Wikipedia, you have to scroll down to Modern and Contemporary section towards the end)
