The Cow That Didn'T Know How

There Once Was a Cow 
That Didn't Know How
To Moo 
Like Normal Cows Do.

He Took Lessons From the Duck
But Didn't Have Any Luck.

He Tried With The Quail
But That Was a Fail.

He Asked the Pig
Who was Really Quite Big
But Even He Didn't Know How
To Moo 
Like Other Cows Do.

He Asked the Horse
Who Was Brilliant, Of Course.
He Thought it Was Funny
And Said 'Go Ask the Bunny.'

He Tried and Tried
Then Was Hit By a Plow.
And Died as the Cow
That Didn't Know How
 To Moo
Like Normal Cows Do.

This is a very creative and amusing poem. Clever and different. But why did you have to kill the poor cow at the end. LOL
