Ora Clay was visiting home folks at Hubball Sunday.

He met her in the meadow

When the sun was low.

They strolled along together

In the twilight after glow.

She patiently waited until

He lowered all the bars.

And her soft bright eyes

Beamed upon him as

Radiant as the stars.

Yet she neither smiled nor thanked him

For she knew not how

For he was only a farmer

And she was a jersey cow.

NOTE: I dedicate this entry to my late friend, Harold Ray Smith of Ranger.
