Me and Ewe

Best of friends Are me and ewe, Ain't no ends... For us two... Spent all the day One day a year, Running away From our shear Not with our kin And not in the barn, Not soon to be in Grandma's yarn Lucky is the cow The heifer, the bull, The piglet and sow Never lose their wool We're getting lost Nowhere to be seen, Licking the frost In a meadow green Feeling so free to Frolic with the bees, Where long grasses grew Nearly up to our knees Love to sniff each Dandelion and daisy, Temptation in reach Drives us both crazy Had eaten our fill Before the bumbles, Rolled on a hill Taking tumbles Me and my buddy Finding trouble, And getting muddy In a pile of rubble Fleece, white as snow Not telling Mother, All that we know About one another Of the springtimes The unicorn, the fairy, The nursery rhymes About us and Mary Best of friends Are me and ewe, Ain't no ends... For us two...

Great playful piece Kelly, it resonates with me having been brought up in Scottish countryside near a farm so know all about farmland animals. Nice imagery and delightful thought lines. Have a blessed weekend, Gordon

Jack Pot!!! At first I looked at the length, then I began to read At first resented the word "Ain't" then I said country like me. It went on and I found the masters touch from the holy ghost. Eventually comming apon Mary, the cherry that tops this desert. This ranks up there with those that should stand the test of time. As proof I'll list it as one of my Fav's. Thanks for not wasteing my time.
