Here’s the one Heather...
A hundred head of bony bovine stock appeared today,
I saw them when I turned in through the gate;
the rains had poured, the grass was green and they had loads of hay,
...it must be they have massive thirsts to sate.
Now dehydration’s wicked ways will force a bony frame,
but why... because the rains had just gone through;
it wasn’t easy, standing there, just where to place the blame
when none out of a hundred’s fit for stew.
They didn’t eat, they didn’t drink, they stood with heads hung low
they coughed a bit and breathed each others dust;
and every beast just looked like death, and in flew one fat crow
but not one died... much to the crows disgust.
So as a country bloke I thought ‘what else could cause this grief’,
then all at once the searching mind explodes;
the answer’s in a drenching and the cure’s rather brief
... the bloody lot are full of nematodes.
