This alliterative poem, Cantankerous Cacophonous Crows, miraculously stays on topic and gets us through the deafening chattering of the cawing crows. Celebrate!

Hello Bill!
Loved your review!
Thank you!

BRAVO BUT THIS MIGHT HAVE BEEN BETTER WITH MANY FEWER RANDOM WORDS WHICH WERE NOT WOVEN INTO SOME IMAGES, AS YOU SO GLORIOUSLY DO WITH THE OPENING AND CLOSING SEGMENTS. FOR EXAMPLE, THE 4 WORDS STARTING WITH CONSENSUAL.

Hey Friend,
Well, from the crow's nest, I would have to say that none of the words are random, and they all contribute to a chaotic scenario of crows, cats, kids, and parents... :)
Thank you for stopping by and the excellent rating and review. I really had fun penning this little piece of poetic alliteration!

Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written alliteration poem with the letter 'C' and the crows that are everywhere, making noise as farcad they go, gathering on telephone lines along the road.

So pleased it made sense to you! It makes perfect sense to me...but I'm just hanging out in the crow's nest!
Thank you for your excellent rating and complimentary review!

Comment from Ogden
A promising entry in a contest with a very difficult prompt to do justice to.
You make a believable case for the consequences noisy crows can trigger, but I'm having a hard time with how those cucumber crunching cuties fit in here (although they somehow must).
Good luck in the voting.

Hah! Don~
So...about those "cucumber crunching cuties..." I originally wrote, "kids," thinking about children being bothered by the crows as well, but then I went back and the prompt said that all words had to start with the same letter. No mention of the same sound, and I knew I had to change it!
Thank you for your excellent rating and thoughtful review!

Hello Karenina!
Wow! That is a collectively cool collection of "c" words I could covet for my cacophonous crows! Too funny! I give you six stars for your review! :)
Thank you for a smile this morning along with your excellent review!

Comment from Swampfox1
Good luck in the contest. That is a hard thing to do, very tough but I must say that you did well, but just how well, I don't know but it would have been nicer if every single word that started with the same letter would have all had to do with crows, but it didn't but I can't say that I blame you. Thanks for sharing, but don't send me any crows.

Hello Friend,
So pleased you stopped by!
The poem does have to do with the unsettling effects these cacophonous crows have on cats, kids, and couples...What a noisy bunch!
Thank you for your excellent rating, and I promise I'll not send any crows your way!

Comment from Angela Post
I enjoyed your poem about the crows. I can just hear their ruckus. You did a great job of collecting so many words that begin with "c". I like how you have added the impact on the cats and the couples.
