Haha... very unique description! Hope some redneck doesn't ractice his cow-tipping skills - then we'd really see how the dominoes fall! Lol...

Have you ever played dominoes? Supposedly it's a fun game, and takes a lot of strategy to play...and I STINK at it! Needless to say I don't play it anymore, ha ha! Oh right, your poem...I really loved it, it made me think of playing dominoes! I do love those cows, and on a white field that must have been striking! You have written a lovely piece my friend, a very enlightening write, Great Work!!
