Authors' Note: The rhyming binomial phrase, poop and scoop, sometimes quoted as stoop and scoop, describes a group activity by pet-owners.
See also the author's poem "dog park".
To review our poetic effusion about binomial phrases, proceed to our blog 'Edifying Nonsense',; click HERE !
There is also an entire collection of lyrics to patter songs, somewhat older material, dedicated to various kinds of binomials, that provides more didactic material and an extensive series of examples, and allows you to sing these expressions for your own enjoyment, or for that of others around you.
