How Now Brown Cow
Ever hear these words, “How now brown cow?”
Wonder where it came from, this to me is very bizarre anyhow.
I realize that it’s just a little saying.
Why this crept in, I asked myself while praying?
You see many people have their ways and collect.
Artifacts like; key chains, buttons and I collected baseball cards,
I reflect.
My wife’s thing is cows,
Why, I can’t figure it, anyhow?
Cows are a blessing to mankind,
giving milk for all humans to survive.
“How now brown cow” is just a little phrase,
But the milk gives us cheese, other products and things that are made.
They give nourishment to fill our lives.
As the Lord put these animals on this Earth
for us to survive.
The Lord has put these brown cows for our use.
Along with all animals, if that’s what we choose.
Man has dominion over all creatures on this Earth.
And we should be grateful for these brown cows,
they were put here way before our birth.
