A polar bear, a newborn elephant, 423 poodles
A murder of crows
A beehive
5 pounds of potatoes, a barrel of pickles, 52 pork chops
A birthday cake
A sailboat, 75 bicycles, the Sistine Chapel
Mount Rushmore
6 lighthouses
The Library of Congress
A pod of dolphins, a swarm of locusts
A cloud of gnats, a thundercloud
A coral reef
The Gulf of Mexico
A field of poppies, a rose garden, an aspen grove
Uluru
The human heart
A month of sunrises
A raft of hopes
Memory
Joy
Tomorrow
The glitter of the moon on the sea
(This poem was inspired by various headlines about asteroids the size of 2 ducks, 18 walruses, a football field, and so on. Also 64 Canadian geese; I don’t know if that means Canada geese or geese with Canadian passports.)
