New McDonald's Farm

Having a little fun

 

A pond full of slippery ducks

Makes the whole hen house cluck.

While the herd of cows go moo

I hear a lonely white horse go boo.

None of the pigs like a clean pen,

goats blame it on the influence of men.

When old McDonald had a farm

I don’t remember it being up in arms.

Or has my coming of age

Change my view of the world’s stage.

I love this twist of McDonalds farm and how the corrupt world can change our once innocent views

[Poetic Beauty]

I like how the view changes with age

Thank you very much.

[Poetic Beauty]

Your welcome.

This is a clever write...it points out the flaws of McDonalds in a clever manner. I was prompted to ask myself whether or not McDonalds stores were inspired by the nursery rhyme while reading this.

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

Well thank you so much… if that is how you see it, then you are correct, for poetry is open to interpretation so there is no wrong in how you view it.

"When old McDonald had a farm

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

haha thanks... brilliant or silly? such a fine line, LOL

[KAOlmsted]

Ha! I love that line about the goats...well, not about the goats, about the influence of men, really, but it started with goats...It is a bit of fun, but it makes you think, too, which you are very good at, Dale!

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

Thank you very much Vacker... glad you liked it... sorry I made you think, LOL

Hey, not for nothing and completely apropos to nothing, but the Burger King in my humble little neighborhood now has a veggie burger and I am stoked...veggie whopper...how cool is THAT??? (with cheese, no onions, extra mayo...so not eating it to be healthy xD) It is yum ;-) xoxo

I was thinking more along the lines of He I, he I...owe.

Very cool my friend. It's funny how the simple life on the farm can become chaotic once the old farmer passes and his kids sell the property to a land devoloper who builds a strip mall and...oh never mind. Very fun read.

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

He I He I Owe... OMG that is a funny.
