Mary Had a Little Lamb

Mary had a little lamb
Its fleece was white as snow
After the school incident
She turned it into stew
Rules are rules
No sheep in school

Bring on Humpty Dumpty
To see what we can do
The thing is eggs are delicious
And that's the truth

Roses are red violets are blue
We can't eat them 
So what's the use
What else is new

Mary had a little lamb
She no longer has it
It became a hearty meal and that's a fact
She could have had a lamb sandwich with salad
There is no reason why in nursery rhymes 
Not this time

Good Morning Maureen. The world bunny population is crazy out of control. I'm surprised more people don't eat more of them. I have never had it. I ate Bambi one time and I even ate alligator one time at the New Orleans Jazz Festival. I have also had a little lamb but I hope it was not Mary's pet. That would be criminal. Have a wonderful day.
