Sheep Shrinking

Something I've always wondered about A subject near and dear to my heart Why don't sheep shrink in the rain It's puzzled me right from the start! A theory that sometimes is bandied about Maybe their wool is non-shrinking Sounds quite a bit far fetched to me Someone's jazzing me I'm thinking! Quite plausible if you think about it though But whether it's true or it's not Sheep I've talked to don't give a rat's ass Damn wool is making them hot! © Jack Ellison 2015

Hey! Why doesn't their wool make them itch? It makes me itch! Maybe it does shrink. You just can't tell cause it keeps on growing! Grandpa Troll is loving you more and more, after Trivia and comments like this! Now the dude has set his alarm an hour earlier than before to get me to the computer faster! If he likes it any more, it might be detrimental to my health! He'll have me sleeping here all night long, checking PoetrySoup every couple of seconds! For more new stuff you've written. Really!

Have enough trouble figuring out why they don't shrink in the rain rather than why their wool makes us itch!!! xxx
