Empty Pasture [Haiku]
in woods' shade,
cattle sit or stand, &
file barn-ward at dusk.

Donkey [Lyric Poem]
The Donkey 's known to be a stubborn beast,
But when one won't move - maybe wheels weren't greased.
I've seen angry humans push, pull, and tug,
But never give a peptalk or a hug.

“The Donkey” by G.K. Chesterton [w/ Audio]
When fishes flew and forests walked
And figs grew upon thorn,
Some moment when the moon was blood
Then surely I was born.
With monstrous head and sickening cry
And ears like errant wings,
The devil's walking parody
On all four-footed things.
The tattered outlaw of the earth,
Of ancient crooked will;
Starve, scourge, deride me: I am dumb,
I keep my secret still.
Fools! For I also had my hour;
One far fierce hour and sweet:
There was a shout about my ears,
And palms before my feet.

Buffalo Horn Limerick
There was a funny buffalo named Stitches whose horns bent back like malformed glitches. "Some horns are for goring and others for warring, but mine are for inaccessible itches."
