Fall Grazing Plan!
First cold rain in September,
starts them old cows moving down,
in search of lower, warmer pastures,
closer to the lights of town.
Those old cows can't read a calendar,
much less a grazing plan,
so as I march them up the hill,
I explain as best I can.
Summer isn't over yet,
the sun will shine next week,
it is too early to end our game,
of bovine hide and seek.
I hide the cattle in the hills,
from Spring to early Fall,
then before the snow, gets too darn deep,
I try to find them all.
