On The Farm.

On the farm I am pleased to announce to you all,
That the animals have listened to natures call.
Now the new lambs are frollicking away,
With nothing to do but to drink and play.
Hens proudly lead their hungry chicks,
Showing them all the best of the picks.
On the pond the coloured drakes,
With wives and ducklings a lovely picture make.
Then there are the calves in the stall,
Lowly mooing as their mothers they call.
Running and kicking around in the field
Foals with their mothers, what a wonderful yield.
The farmers wife has a new baby in her arms,
Living on a farm certainly has it's charms.
A couple of well rounded mother sows,
With twenty piglets, should take their bows.
It must be wonderful to live on a farm,
To share with nature all this charm.
