The Trip To Town

A purple pig a light blue dog fell in love while resting on a log they had run so far away maybe three hours maybe a day Her eyes were lilac his were brown and they were going into town to search out someone who would marry them so they could have babies, maybe twins like the wind they ran stumbling and falling they could hear the farmer calling "Come back, come back, you two are my prize" to look back at him would not be wise so headstrong were they to be wed they would be better off dead 'cause the farmer would not let them live together in the house in stormy weather? Certainly not, a pig in the house he knew he would grunt not be as quiet as a mouse Finally, they approached a preacher man asked him to do all he can "Okay, you're married" he told the two the dog kissed the pig and felt anew they headed back home their tails wiggly, wiggly laughing and snorting and giggly, giggly And it wasn't long 'til the farm was ablaze with colors so pretty for the pg and the dog had litter after litter purple and lilac and beige and brown blue and lavender all because of that trip to town...
