Stray doggie musta wandered off
A lone cow appeared uninterested
Oblivious to its misfortune
Unaware there wasn't another bovine around
For a mile at least
The fencing would keep her off the highway
What with its trucks and buses and cars
But how would she get back to the herd
All she did was munch on the grass
Probably stumbled upon a sweet patch
Having followed a line of tasty blades
Like in that E.T. movie
Following pieces of candy
Until an hour later
Here she was
Stray doggie musta wandered off
A lone cow appeared uninterested
Oblivious to its misfortune
Unaware there wasn't another cow around
For a mile at least
For Conversations With Walt
