A Baa Baa Feed Fest

It sheer is nice to munch all night
and all day, too, with Byron’s crew
of sheep, that is, that wander ‘neath 
his walnut grove, that’s old and true. 

Hey, baa baa Babe, don’t you run away 
you’re missing tons of fresh, green hay
meanwhile baa baa Bob, whose teeth are long
wanders in circles ‘cuz he has brain fog. 

Poor baa baa Ben is growing rather bored
he nibbles walnut shells for show and tell
‘cuz he wants the lady sheep to know
he’s available to frolic for a spell. 

Yep, it’s real nice to meet and greet
at this sheep convention across the street
to congregate and shoot the breeze 
until they get hay fever and suddenly sneeze…
…achoo, baa, baa, achoo!

Lots of fun to read you in your light hearted mode, Laura! I particularly enjoyed "it sheer is nice" and the thought of sheep getting hay fever. Great for some much needed giggles ~ John

Thanks, Michelle, for commenting! My son n’a in-laws have a walnut farm and they had sheep underneath their groves! I went off that idea. :)
