Cygnet ... Tiny

Today's word is "cygnet" ... SIG-nit ... a young swan.

Tiny
A puggle, a calf, a hatchling,
A kitten, a piglet, a fawn,
A whelp, a foal, or a kitten,
To mothers they all belong.

A gosling, a pig, a leveret,
A cria, a cygnet, a kit
A colt, an antling, a pup,
Within families they all fit.

A baby, an infant, a kid,
A toddler, a rascal, a child,
Whatever you call a small human,
They live with us, not in the wild.
