Who Ewe Looking At?

Softness that stinks, a smell from afar Can't see you yet, but I know where you are Vocab quite limited, to my untrained ear Perhaps there's more to it than I can hear Eye me with suspicion, what have I done? I'll have you know I'm a vegetariun...

Dear Dilly, I loved this poem. It’s so funny and cute too. As a fellow non meat eater (vegan) it resonates greatly with me. Animals grazing out in the fields can be so inquisitive. Bless them and you too Dilly. Hope you’re having a good weekend. Hugs xx

Ha!! Ha!! I guess you won't be eating that ewe. Thanks for sharing this one with us and it reads like a good contender for the contest to me. Way to go. Sara K

You certainly describe the bang of sheep dung that fills the air on approach Dilly, the limited vocab is also a very big giveaway lol! a fun collection of clever couplets, vegetariun not quite (me) I’m more of a beef man, with Moonosyllabic vocab, I’m afraid, cheers David

Maybe they'd prefer that rather than people like me competing for their plants :)

Dear Di11y Da11y, your poem is such a delightful blend of humor and introspection. Your play on words and the juxtaposition of softness and suspicion create a whimsical atmosphere. Your wonderful exploration of limited vocabulary adds depth to the narrative. It's a witty and engaging piece that leaves me smiling and pondering. Excellent! - Blessings, Daniel

Thanks Daniel - there's a field of sheep near where I live and this is really just my thoughts on walking past. There's always a brave one - sent to find out what I'm up to haha

Meat isn't eaten at every meal anymore. Thank you for this commitment poem.

Think I've only tasted mutton once and even if I did eat meat I wouldn't eat it. They are doing their best to make their wool less appealing too...
