Today's word is "totidem verbis" ... TAW-ti-dem WER-bees ... with just so many words; in these words. (Dictionary.com)
Screach
A gathering of crows,
Black against the snow,
Speaking one to one,
The cawing, on it goes.
Screaming at each other,
Totidem verbis, loud,
No one knows the reason,
For this raucous crowd.
Off they fly together,
Chaos clinging to their wings,
You cannot expect to see them,
Sitting on a branch to sing!
