Border Closed

tried to sell my cows
but the border closed
so i'd tightened my belt
and ride it out, i spose.

feedin calved out heifers and their young ones too
spending money on hay to feed beef i can't use.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
