(not) just for kicks

A quadrille muddle at dVerse Poets pub this week…

 

it’s chores time on our family farm
calves gathered in a huddle
to vaccinate from microbe harm
we chase them, catch ‘n cuddle

sometimes the work goes like a charm
sometimes the herd’s befuddled
calves vs. farmers by the barn
in an unlucky, mucky muddle!

    “we chase them, catch ‘n cuddle”
    So many fun sounds and rhymes in this!

    awww, no one likes to get their shots. great job rhyming “uddle”. I love how you did that with humor. My favorite though is “unlucky mucky muddle” because I can picture slipping and sliding in ….

    The herd’s befuddlement may make the chores interesting.
