Cows are funny creatures
that sometimes act quite silly,
Like Molly and her best
friend, Sweet Willie.
The two cows were
traveling across the USA,
Stopping in every state
they crossed on their way.
When they arrived in
Texas, Molly thought it was too big.
“Whoever decided to make
this state probably danced a jig.
Look at the blue bonnets.
They don’t look like hats.
And what’s an armadillo?
I hope we see one, fancy that.”
They spotted a field full
of tall, tall grass.
“I’m feeling hungry; a
meal I don’t want to pass.”
Sweet Willie also noticed
the other bovine in the field.
“Now isn’t that odd. Look
at that big bull eating a meal.”
“Silly, silly, Sweet
Willie, that’s not a bull.
Look at the horns;
they’re so long and so full.
It’s probably an
elephant, or a rhino, don’t you think?”
Molly sniffed the air,
“At least it doesn’t stink.”
Another cow was munching
on the grasses near by.
“That’s a longhorn bull,
you silly cows; you’d better rub your eye.
Down here in Texas we
grow everything big and tall.
We also say ‘Howdy’ and
‘Come on y’all.”
Molly and Sweet Willie
stared at the bull for hours.
They chomped on the rye
and wheat and also on some flowers.
“Doesn’t that beat all,”
Molly said with a smile.
“We’d better get going.
We’ve been here quite a while.”
So the two cows
mooooo-ved on, plodding across the state.
One thing for sure, both
cows lost a lot of weight. |
