B.Ovine S.Peculations
I wonder what you're thinking
while you are standing there
chewing cud so placidly
I wonder if you care.
What do you think about the sky
when stormy gray or blue
how do you feel about the rain
falling down on you?
What are your thoughts about the field
the grass beneath your feet?
Is it seen as something wonderful
or just wonderful to eat?
Do you ever question why you are
or why you're standing there
or is it just that you accept
the fact that you are here?
Are you speculating why
I watch you standing there
chewing cud so placidly?
I wonder if you care.
There are a lot of farms in the area where I live, especially dairy farms
which was the source of my inspiration for this. RG
