Language Valentine

I would like to learn
The stern idiom of the crows
How to break grammar into number
Timing and volume with
A sizeable amount of scorn
Laughter and alarm thrown in
How out of just one word
They wring a whole language
Sufficient to their simple need
For greetings and farewells
Leaving to prettier birds
The singing and the chatter
Speaking Caw-Caw-Caw
What else could matter
