A cow for me!
Milk, you’ll see.
She obviously needs a place to stay.
I’ll wash her, love her, and feed her hay.
Wait...what’s that smell?
Move along. I wish you well.
I love this poem!! It really captures what is going on in the mind of a kid! They want the cute little pet...until smelly reality sets in!
ReplyDeleteSo true, Libby! Thanks!
DeleteLove it!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Tessa!
DeleteOh dear girl, just wait until you smell the far end of a big pig. Even worse than the cow, I assure you.
ReplyDeleteEwwww! JQ, I take it you have? You need a big hug. :)
DeleteCute writing. An interesting exploration for this challenge.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Ruby!
DeleteGives a whole new meaning to "Don't have a cow, man."
ReplyDeleteCute story. No cow for Mags. :)
She drinks enough milk that a cow may be cheaper. :) But I don't think it would like it on the mountain. A goat perhaps? Where was I going with this?
DeleteThanks!
Just like a child - they want the cute and cuddly without the smelly. Good thing parents aren't like that with children :)
ReplyDeleteI love how you see that connection. I was going to go that route with the diaper comparison, but I think I filled my quota on poop entries a few entries ago. ;)
DeleteLOL. The best one I've come across so far.
ReplyDeleteHa! Very cute!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for linking up to Trifextra this weekend. The challenge this weekend will be judged by the community. So please come back to the Trifecta home page and click the stars next to the three posts you most enjoyed. You only have until Monday at 8 am EST, so hurry!
ReplyDeleteThat would do it for me, too! Cute!
ReplyDeleteCute story! Nice take on the challenge.
ReplyDeletehaha, any child who sees a cute animal wants to take it home. the smell, though, would be an excellent deterrent any parent could appreciate
