Daver Austin Poet Free verse

Barnyard Bouquet

BARNYARD BOUQUET

Poor Mahitabel
Got et the yard boys do tell
Little Johnny’s pet

Johnny’s pal got et
Noisiest bird iver heard
Gobblin day and night

Ran em plum ragged
Put up one helluva fight
What a bedlam sight

Carolyn Devonshire November 11, 2011 at 12:37 PM Hey, this is a new style for you, Daver, and I love the way you use regional pronunciations. I bet that "noisy bird" was someone's idea of a good dinner. I can't stop laughing thinking of folks chasing "poor Mahitabel." Great poem! Love, Carolyn
