“Baa-Ram-Ewe, Baa-Ram-Ewe” squeaked,
Girls in wool alerted. “Move,”
Sheep-pig so polite.
*****
“Baa- Ram- Ewe, Baa-Ram-Ewe” twice,
Babe snorts his directions. “Here.”
Trot with sheep-like haste.
*****
“Baa-Ram-Ewe,” Baa-Ram-Ewe” thrice,
“That’ll do pig, that’ll do.”
Sheep dine in verdant fields green.

“So kiss me and smile for me, tell me that you’ll wait for me. Hold me like you’ll never let me go . . . ’cause I’m leaving on a jet plane, I don’t know when I’ll be back again. Oh, babe, I hate to go.” – Original Lyrics by John Denver

The sky was falling in large drops of blue glass. The weeping willow was the first to notice so she cried. Her tears gathered creating a river with the drops from the sky.
A mighty rabbit hopped by, he was a bit confused as to where all this water was coming from.
“Ms. Willow why are you crying a river?” he asked.
“I’m a weeping willow and the sky is falling haven’t you noticed?”
The rabbit nodded, “Well yes of course it falls. Each time it rains, snows, or hails, the sky falls.”
“You need to stop crying. You’re going to drown everyone in your tears. I’m the king of all animals, you better listen to me.”
“Why?”
“My friend is a massive blue ox named Babe. His friend named Paul chops down trees for a living.”
The willow immediately stopped weeping and the rabbit’s triumphant roar was heard throughout the forest.

You don’t see what you’re doing, caught dreaming.
Babe stole my life away, rockstar crazy.
Didn’t know I needed him, smoker hazing.
Fitting in his life, guitar notes streaming.
Babe you forgot me, her fur coat gleaming.
Versace, one of everything, likes daisies.
Never thought you were more than just lazy.
Alone in this room, a woman cries fleeing.
——
Chill of winter of in her bones that girls gone,
She left with you, her spirit trailing smoke.
Didn’t you hear the fire alarm? She lost hope.
Winters cold to marrow of bones, bitter song,
Bullets hit, and then she’s gone; did you love her?
Your phone calls rang; all here smelt blood’s tang.

Thank you to The Daily Post for the prompt words: Playful,Smooth,and Connected.
Softest, palest skin, girl with bright blue eyes,
Tiny, huddled, swaddled in blankets tight.
Gossamer fabrics, plush and fluffy, hide.
Smooth, delicate artistry; babe thrives.
Connection between child and mother strong,
Small babe in pink, flaxen blond hair curls.
Smooth delicate artistry; babe thrives,
Gossamer fabrics, plush and fluffy, hide.
Developing, playful; peering, curious eyes,
Sits up on Mama’s lap; with head up right.
Gossamer fabrics, plush and fluffy, hide,
Smooth delicate artistry; babe born, thrives.
Seated in bumbo, gurgling smile, laughs,
Lifted into the air, Dad’s hands girl whirls,
Smooth delicate artistry; babe thrives,
Gossamer fabrics, plush and fluffy, hide.
Time to crawl around, then up on her feet,
Flaxen hair lengthens, tiny teeth start to bite.
Gossamer fabrics, plush and fluffy, hide,
Smooth and delicate artistry; babe thrives.
Independence forms, play-dates, swimming lessons,
Not a baby long; connects with other girls.
Smooth and delicate artistry; babe thrives,
Gossamer fabrics, plush and fluffy, hide.
Away to playschool and kindergarten,
Babe a moment; small girl in Mama’s sight.
Gossamer fabrics, plush and fluffy, hide,
Smooth and delicate artistry; babe thrives.
