Ms Van Loenan I really do thank you
For calling the police to assist
In rounding up Sally and Sammy
Who all of us here we have missed
baa….baa….baa….baa….
Naughty ones Sally and Sammy
Were gaily just wandering the streets
Mowing each lawn as they passed by
Chomping each flower they did meet
baa…chomp….baa….chomp….
Police are well-trained in human capture
But with Sally and Sammy? no clue
So just stood on guard quietly waiting
For experts in cows, kangaroos
(Same technique – attract with carrot, stroke nose, then neck-hold….)
I (owner) made contact with the animal shelter. Yes, they had two lost sheep getting cosy-like with the kangaroo. Better pick them up quick.

Don’s satire is humor with meaning. Two sheep lost and found, how did they get where they are – a story to be told another day. Good thing they were rounded up before they ate their way to tummy aches. Maybe Mary’s little lamb could teach them a thing or two in discipline. And I’d stay away from those kangaroos.
Congratulations Don!

Sally and Sammy look super cute. Goats are wonderful creatures. I remember when I was young living next to a village, which had a lot of goats there and they were well adapted to the steppe climate…

They are precious. I wish I could have some but not in this neighborhood. They are intelligent animals too. I am so glad you found your animals. Congratulations Don.
