This years crowd of calves Looked at me from behind the wire With a collective quizzical eye. They watched with interest As I ripped the long luscious grass, Growing on my side of the fence, Making a stock sided snack. Each fuzzy furred creature Pushing through the throng. But each untidy youngster Too nervous to want the front row Within reach of my uncluttered left hand. Finally, what seemed to be The smallest of the group. Teetered on trembling legs, Neck stretched and long pointed pink tongue curling, Nostrils steaming, streamed, dribbling. And pulled the chlorophyl green, milk making plant, Tentatively, tremulously from my expectant grasp, Victory! As head jerked up With trophy showing through cleached jaws, The others snorted. Stamped, Stampeded! Between the fingers of my left hand The electric feel of the hair Covering the boney hump Where horns would soon sprout. LYDIARD PARK WHITSUN 1986 |
