He's Rounding Em Up

A shepherd in charge of his flock
Insisted on wearing a frock
He wore black high heels
When out in the fields...
His hormones they sure ran amok

When working in inclement weather
His outfit was shiny black leather
He looked a bizarre sight
In his corset so tight
His family now call him Heather!

Gershon Wolf Date: 5/6/2018 5:10:00 PM So, Jan, what's a poor sheep to think of all this, anyway?!...Of course, here in the USA, things are so nuts that they've just taken the 'Boy' out of 'Boy Scouts'...Then again, Johnny Cash had a country-music hit way back in the day with a song called "A Boy Name Sue." Go figure, eh? Login to Reply Jan Allison Date: 5/6/2018 5:20:00 PM Political correctness gone mad Gershon! whatever are they going to come up with next!:-( hugs jan xx
