Notes About The Poem

And you think you have problems...

Lamb Stew

The poor animal's all gender-confused
  Its friends say it is not at all amused
    Should it go meh-meh
    Or perhaps baa-baa
  At night, of counting sheep it is accused!

No wonder the poor lamb is in a stew - Of gender identity it's no clue - When trying to sleep - And is counting sheep - To each one it bleats out a loud "Woohoo." …… Belle

A cute write. Crazy world for the animals??? Now we have a problem. Try saying, 1 sheep, 2 sheep, 3 sheep, 4 sheep, then try saying your prayers and go to sleep. Have a Blessed day writing away..............
