John Williams Poet Rhyme

The New Farm Animal

Camelia Rose blew her nose,
The noise was quite gigantic,
Elouise goose flapped her wings,
Other animals were acting frantic.

Betsy dog ducked in her kennel
As the din echoed round the farm,
It sounded like a foghorn
And was causing such alarm.

Neddy horse hid in his stall,
Clara cow inside the milking shed,
The pigs no longer at their trough
Waiting to be fed.

When the sound finally disappeared
Camelia Rose spoke in a voice so calm,
"I'm just a llama with a cold,
No one will come to harm."

Lindsay Laurie March 14, 2015 at 10:00 PM G'day John... That's absolutely true about farm animals. They are wary of strangers, but little do they know what great protectors llamas are. Thank you John - Lindsay John Williams March 15, 2015 at 6:10 AM Hi Lindsay, Thanks again for reading one of my poems. Yes, llamas are great protectors of sheep herds. In fact one llama is all you need, especially if they are around when some of the young lambs are born. They bond with them. Thanks Lindsay--------John
