Farmer Bill and Baby Grace

"I'm hungry!" Said Farmer Bill;
"that's what I'mah thinkin!
Perhaps I'm in the mood for you!"
-He said, pointing to chicken.
"Yes chicken's what I'm pickin’,
I'll take you to the kitchen!"

-“Oh Nooooooo” said Baby Grace,
so, Farmer Bill moved on.


“I'm hungry!” Said Farmer Bill;
“I'm open to suggestions!
Perhaps I'm in the mood for you”,
-he said, pointing to pheasant.
“A pheasant would be pleasant,
and a most delicious present!”
 
-“Oh Nooooooo” said Baby Grace,
so, Farmer Bill moved on.


“I'm hungry!” Said Farmer Bill;
“Just hear my tummy whine!
Perhaps I'm in the mood for you”,
-he said, pointing to swine.
“A swine would taste just fine,
Breakfast, dinner, anytime!”

-“Oh Nooooooo” said Baby Grace,
so, Farmer Bill moved on.


“I'm hungry!” Said Farmer Bill;
“How much longer must I take this?
Can't have chicken, can't have eggs,
How I miss my crispy bacon!”

“Oh Nooooooo” said Baby Grace.
And as she held up a fruit,
Farmer Bill said; "just what I wanted!
Apple's are my favorite food."
