milking cows

Milking Cows

I milk the cows,

Both day and night.

They really give me,

Quite a fright.

By Jaremy Hoopes, I think he was about 16 years old. His English teacher was not particularly impressed.

Ah, but it is so clever!

That's hilarious. It seems very Jaremy-esque to me. His teacher should have been more open-minded.

I agree with Carlee. I find the poem rather unique and different.

Well, it is a sweet poem. Now you guys can see why I married him.

First off, you didn't even get it right. Second, you didn't get permission from me to publish my intellectual work. Third, why did the teacher see in Wynn Allred's stupdid verse about"Fog and cats?"

The correction to the poem is "Morning and night."

The effects of Mrs. Clark's criticism of this great work is only equalled by the white ribbon I got for penmanship in 6th grade!
