Our Own Little Oasis

Everything's about satisfying our personal pleasures Creating our own little oasis with a bed of feathers But sometime's thorns Disrupt the norms Instead of cats and dogs, our pets are heifers © Jack Ellison 2015

I once had a pet heifer on my dear Aunts farm... The sweetest thing around by far... except that pig who like his tummy rubs, so far... Never could decide which one was the true star... One ate grass and the other morsels from my cookie jar...

Jack I know a farmer that has one of those heifers. She got loose and she was found grazing on the cemetery flowers people had put there for their loved ones. At east the flowers did not go to waste. At least she did not think so Jack lol I spelled waste wrong.

Is that the one who jumped over the moon...who caused the knife to run off with the spoon... Made pigs fly...poor girls cry..all this in just one afternoon.... Good morning Jackson

Love it! Being outside the norm is good. I once had a pet cow who drank coffee with me every morning. Raised her from a 3 day old calf.
