Best Calf Poems
Betty's Little CalfBetty had a little calf,
It was white and brown,
Everywhere that Betty went
It followed her around.
She fed it twice every day
With a bucket full of chaff,
The way Daisy munched it
Made young Betty laugh....

Golden CalfA Golden Calf came through our old town for people to worship whether deft or daft.
If anyone impedes this Olympian flame in disporting procession coming from this flawed
home (like all ours) of demos kratos - Greece will save itself if it be true to...

The Calf Roper
The Calf Roper
By
Tom Wright
From the California town named Truckee,
Came a roper of calves nicknamed Bucky.
But calves would troop,
Through his lasso’s loop,
He still thought he had talent, just unlucky.

Lulu's Cow Has a Calf (A Male Calf)The grass, just about dry,
is canary, clothed in evening sun,
now sinking beyond the colorful portrait,
canvassed on nature’s abundant spread;
a brilliant form, painted by fall’s seasoned fingers.
The cool breeze funnels through valleys
carved into towering crags,
and gently commands the trees to...

The Smallest CalfThe Prince was wicked pertinacious,
picky to the 'nth' degree,
inclined to be quite perspicacious
when considering Number Three.
The first had sadly disappointed,
not come up to scratch, you see,
and number two was ill-appointed
for a run at royalty.
His Princess must be slim and cracking!
all the things a bride should...

CalfBorn out of fear.
Suffering screams that nobody hears, and eyes that are swelled up with tears.
Peering into a world that is very unclear.
Abruptly being steered...
Sheer fear...
Painful spear...
Disappear....

Callie the Calf, Grows UpIn a small Iowa town, picturesque,
as some would put, is a farm
so let me continue on a bit,
and I'll spin a Holiday yarn
Down a long country lane, not far from town,
there was a farm, not big, fifty acres and a half
on the farm, lived a...

The Brown Eyed CalfThe Brown Eyed Calf
Now ol’ Dan was a calf roper
Won lots of cash that way
He’d rope at county fairs and such
A big boost to his pay.
He done it for so many years
They got to seem the same
Sometimes he lost track of the town
Could not recall...

How Lady Learned At Last*** How Lady Learned at Last ***
For decades, Lady daydreamed, wanting a full closet,
A packed, complete fashionable style:
Shoes to hats, to crown the French Bob
Of shinny, brunnette tresses above her hazel eyes.
There’d be gauzy blouses and Merino, Polo
Sweaters in a dozen colors altogether.
All the...

Life On the Farm
Living on a farm is never boring
There are cows to milk, bulls, steers, calves to feed
Pigs to slop and chickens to peck the dust
With guineas moving around, exploring
Chasing turkeys through the musical lead
Dance must
Enlightening their lives through adventures
Naught is as soothing a silence, a must
Ensuring...
