Neither Better Than the Other
Elsie the cow brought home the twins.
They were in a cart with an errant wheel that spins.
You have a little bull! The other cows said.
And a darling girl, Elsie said, her cheeks all red.
But a bull cow is something! Mixie Cow replied.
You are so lucky to have one! agreed Mrs. McBride.
And a little girl, Elise said, to straighten them out.
They did not understand, and she did not pout.
Girls and boys, boys and girls, both precious and sweet.
Neither better than the other, both a genuine treat.
Elsie the cow knew better than most.
of both girls and boys a mama can boast.
