Linking to dVerse poetics where Victoria hosts a musical theme. Gotta love the sound of musical terms and be amused by antics of animals at their own unique tempo!
sheep doloroso bleats
chicken vivace peeps
horse grazioso clops
bullfrog legato hops
kittens vibrato mew
cattle adagio chew
deer acapella leap
ants presto creep
grizzly forte growls
wolf cadenza howls
puppy capriccio frisks
squirrels bourree whisk
