Short Cowbells Poems

No bells but cowbells
Clang in the glen;
Bird-song and maid-song
Sing without end;
Sunlight and dewlight
Quiver and shine;
No heart but your heart
Beats into mine....

The decorated bull was upset
Somebody thought he was a woman
Cows are women, bulls are men!
How much more male could he be?

He put his nose into the air,
Angry with the decorator.
Irritated about the huge bell too.
It is cow bells, people, not bull bells!...

  A neglected letter is the 'z'
    not as popular as a 'p'
    nor as romantic as the 'r's'
  In the panoply of letters, 'z' gets zero stars

  Ah, but when it comes to animals
    Why, 'Z' excels!

Faking a heart attack
last July
was an event.
Even the feds were
marshaled for action.
Cow bells.
Whose got cowbells?

Words can’t harm you.
I’m restless.
Turn on the channel;
click on Oxford.
Turn up the volume;
Let’s play baseball.

About.
About what?
There’s a thriller.
Toot your horn.
Bring the station wagon
	around front.
Business as usual....

The cow was playing cowbells,
Giddy Goat joined in on his guitar,
The horse was hoofing bongo drums.
Animals started coming from afar.

The chicken clucked an egg out,
Pig was oinking right in time,
Duck was tinkling on her triangle
While dog was hammering on his chime.

Pussy picked up her piccolo,
Goose was flapping on his flute,
Donkey brayed on a big trombone,
It really was a farmyard hoot!
