Thirteen Cows

As I took my afternoon stroll
Pole to pole as I plodded with Poe
I looked up to the strangest sight
That caused me to smile with much delight

At the fence stood one and twelve
And into their confidence did I delve
Thirteen cows cheering me on
Even as each footfall fell like a ton

They didn't care that it's a windy day
Or that they paused too long from their hay
Hey! The seemed to say
With eyes expectant as if to play

Two were nodding, I kid you not
One grinned, One just blew snot
You can do it, we know you can
Keep on going! You're the man!

So if you're ever plodding along a country road
And you think you're about to give up or explode
Look for encouragement from the strangest of place
Keep one foot in front of the other, a smile on your face
