She Arrived In June
My name is xxxxxx
I arrived in June
One night whilst the cow jumped over the moon
I am vegan, loyal, afraid and brave
The Sister of one and that’s it for me
I’m the lover of no-one but what will be , will be
I stand up for myself
Whilst I sit on my shelf
I feel broken, lost and lonely most of the time
I fear death and isolation, being a victim of crime
I would love to see animals being treated with respect
After all they are innocent and incredibly perfect
I daily feel their fear, and their isolation
They deserve a much better and wholesome reputation
I work hard for my pay without thanks or reward
Are we put on this earth to work so hard ?
I live in England, it’s not so proud anymore
Why do I stay here ? , I’m not at all sure
I dream of Paris, Provence and New York
Continental salads and fancy wine corks
But I follow the crowds and I go the right way
I am xxxxxx and I will have ‘my day’
