The Milk Mooch

The Milk Mooch

A Poem by Norma M Sutton
"

From a everyday event

"




When milking
Doth he come

Twitching tail
And snacking tongue

Smart and crafty
One is he

Trained his
Milking lady well

Gets first sip
Every morn

Others watch
Look forlorn

For only he
Has learned this trick

The rest run
And dodge the stream

Only one
Small and fuzzy stays near

Her eager eyes
Dancing bright draw near

Yesterday morn
She begs a try

Soon he'll have
To share his milk mooch

This poem was oddly clever and I LOVED IT. The video is SOOOOO adorable made my day. I loved the two line stanzas and it was for a simple task that was put into complex words. Loved it!
