Best Milking Poems

Whenever I need a muse,
I just sit in nature's lap,
And write whatever comes to me,
And hope it's not full of crap.

So far so fine I think,
As I take another drink,
From the bosom of nature's breast,
Watch me suck harder than the rest.

Sometimes I need my milk...

A new day begins
As the day before.
The Jersey girls assemble themselves
Into their usual cow chain.
One girl’s head follows another’s tail.
Then head then tail,
All along the sodden trail.
This habit has worn a pasture lane
Of mud and muck, 
And cow to barn.
They plod the path with bulging...

Milking cow of good
What   good 
For humanity 
Is good
 For economy 
What good 
for his mother
Isn't good
 For the child?!
Take care of your people
 People 
Will take care of you
Prosperity 
 of sheepherder 
Is not having 
Hundred sheep
As a richest
 Of commune ...

They're moving up closer from the fields of clover. 
Dog circles around behind.
Making sure they head for the milking shed,
like they do every milking time.
Standing out of the mud, chewing their cud,
holding their heads down low -
turning up the beat on the ABC;
boot scootin' boogie...

Dear friend, 

I am trying to master the ancient art of Almond Milking. It's quite difficult and my sweetie hasn't had a drink of almond milk in months. I started with cats to improve my dexterity, but they kept getting away and the little stinkers...

“Milking the situation” is from a long-ago age
“Milking the cows” from our agricultural heritage
Some phrases hang on
Though some are long gone
Some remain in our lexicon though we've turned the page...

There is quite a big ruckus on the street
Lad's milking a cow without any teats
   How does he do it?
   He stands, doesn't sit
Hey look, Mom, no hands. I'm using my feet!

While others give grief,
a chocolate milk cow
often stutters, and how!
In her udder relief,
she utters “ca-cow”
while producing cacao,
tells the nutters,
Ciao, ciao.
Not one to chew fat,
a crow in the know
tells her, no, it’s cocoa
but she says he’s loco,
and a raven, at that.

Owning a barn was one of your wish lists
Reaping a fruit tree is not a work of an altruist.
They said blueberry jams are your favorite
Wonder if you’ll eat them at once: Savor it!

Did you collect eggs from a tired hen?
Did you rip off the sheep’s...

When milking the cow,
here's a bit of advice to heed:
Don't handle her udders too roughly
Or you just might get a kick,
you ain't never gonna forget
Milk the cow right,
then drink of the 
white liquid substance of life...

They pull back a curtain in time
with one-word pictures sublime
to evoke a tear or much fear.

Announcers speak of Katrina,
9-11, Columbine or Diana
through a curtain in time.

Talking heads regurgitate Watergate,
the Holocaust or Vietnam to titillate
a tear or much fear.

Lives lived vicariously
on the trauma or drama they...

Going rare grass,

Starving Cows,

Capture the whales,

To milk all!...

A holstein was feeling forlorn
from waking alone every morn;
With udders fantastic
Of silicone plastic,
She’s grabbing the bulls by the horn.

Milking time


breaking dawn, the sun slowly rising in the east
as early morning mist evaporates, all is quiet and still
in the distance, a cow bellows.
a cottage door opens and a maid emerges.
in her hands the milking stool and pail
later she returns to the dairy

There once was a farmer named Larry
With a hundred cows at his dairy
Larry did his best
Hired help for the rest
Milking that many cows was scary
