Scary to Larry

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

Len Gasun Date: 7/15/2024 11:42:00 PM This is a delightful limerick to read today my dear friend Bill. I never had experienced milking a cow so I want to try one someday but to have that large number, it's absolutely scary. Thanks for the smiles and sharing this precious limerick. God bless you always. I apologize for the late visit my dear poet friend. Thanks belatedly also for faving my Why I became a poet poem. Blessings. Hugs
Sara Kendrick Date: 7/14/2024 3:47:00 AM Good one, Bill. I imagine dairy farmers thank God every day for electric or gas operated milking machines. LOL..They still have to put those on the cows and take them off but at least the worse or hardest part is made easy. Thanks for sharing the humor. Sara K

Valsa George Date: 6/16/2024 11:31:00 PM Hi Bill, this is so hilarious and at the same time pointing to a real truth. Milking these many cows is indeed a hard ordeal. B/w... What has happened to Sara? I sorely miss her and her poems.....

Miranda Hawley Date: 6/3/2024 6:56:00 PM I absolutely love your limericks. Larry needs a time machine to take him from the 1940's to the present, heck maybe the 90's would have served him easier with his job.
David Fisher Date: 6/3/2024 3:59:00 PM Good one Bill! I guess Larry has a white thumb.
Paul Bell Date: 6/3/2024 9:53:00 AM I'll think of Larry when I'm buying my milk. lol
Tonye George Date: 6/2/2024 11:41:00 AM I thought it was fun. Maybe when it's just one cow. Lovely piece Bill. Cheers.

Lin Lane Date: 6/2/2024 7:19:00 AM Your Limerick was udderly humorous, Bill.
Daniel Henry Rodgers Date: 6/2/2024 4:52:00 AM Dear Bill, your limerick had me grinning from ear to ear! The playful rhymes and vivid imagery of a dairyman overwhelmed by his bovine brood is pure comedic gold. Your clever wordplay and knack for capturing humor in simple scenes is so entertaining. Well done on this delightfully witty piece! - Blessings, My Friend, Daniel
Hilda Greenhough Date: 6/1/2024 10:58:00 PM A very funny limerick that made me laugh. It's a good one.
Sara Etgen-Baker Date: 6/1/2024 4:31:00 PM Oh poor Larry. Such an overburdened dairy farmer. Methinks in today's world, that many cows would be of concern to the climate activists...you know with all that gas :-) just kidding. A fun Limerick, hubby! hugs, Sara
Kim Rodrigues Date: 6/1/2024 1:30:00 PM That would be taxing!
