After lookin' at your pix on the ranch thread, it reminded me of the morning when I went out to feed and it was foggy. This is what I wrote when I got back home.

Comprehension

Like ghosts they materialize
Appearing through the fog to get their feed
Shuffling so carefully over the ice
Conditions dictate their speed

With shaggy, unkempt hair
Hipjoints jutting from rail thin back
Swinging, swaying, udders look like
Old gloves hanging from a rack

Steam swirls up from their nostrils
Only to vanish in the clinging mist
They drop their heads down to reach the feed
This is our daily tryst

I wonder if they think I’m a god
I provide for them from their birth to the grave
Then I’m hit with sudden, awestruck realization
To them, I’m merely a slave

:wink:

Me either, that's why I mentioned it!!!!!!!! :p

And we all know you don't run Angus. :wink:

As of right now, there are probably more cows with angus bloodlines than any other breed, on this ranch. :p

:shock:

:cry:

Oh well, I've run angus longer than any other breed, but of course, they was the good ones, RED angus. :wink:
