Animal Imitator

Animal Imitator.

Finn, the Norwegian farm boy, was good at
Imitating the mooing of cows, did it so well
That the heavy uddered stopped grazing and
Mooed back.

Finn was a cleaver boy studied well became
A diploma engineer and moved into town.
At a party, years later, Finn, now a man with
Silver hair and Armani suit, mentioned his
Prowess as a cow mooing imitator and was
Asked to do it again; applause and laughter,
Yes he still had the gift, said those who had
Heard a cow moo, and those who hadn’t
Smiled and applauded too.

Towards dawn many taxis where called none
Came, the party walked outside to discover
Why, and found the street totally blocked by
Five hundred cows
