In the land of Baa.

In the land of Baa.

A Poem by andrew mitchell

In the kingdom of Baa
there was a lot of
baa going on.

Baa Baaton!
Baa Baa-one!
Whatcha been baa up to?
Baa nothing! Really baaring actually!
And ewe?

We all followed the good shepherd
and went to the Baa movies.
What did you all baa-see?
We saw One flew over the Baa's nest,
the baa life of Baa, and fifty baa-shades of sheep.

Baaeutiful! That's baaking awesome!
No baa-shite! That was my very baa-thought!

Are you going on that cruise to the Middle-east?
No baaking way! And ewe?
Baaking hell no! They eat baa!
Doesn't baa thinking about it!
Look at the baa-time! I must go baa-grazing.
Must go Baaton.
Baa to you too Baa-one.

Ha ha Andrew. You've baarking lost the plot. All I could think of was Little Baa Peep and Baathsheba Everdene, the heroine of Far From The Madding Crowd. Oh and Baa humbug. Yep, I like the last one. Never been a sheep myself. You know in Far From the Madding Crowd hundreds of them fell over a cliff top, driven by a rogue sheep dog. I have never forgotten that sight. Look where you took me :)

The film was great, it was just the sheep scene that stuck with me. :) Hope all is well.

Okay, this is actually the house of commons at work. Vote for this Baa and leave with a deal.
Don't vote for the Baa and leave without a deal.
Baa the deal and I'm leaving. Baa, baa, Baa.

Thank you so much bad bunny for the smiles in return.
very humorous write
I used to be quite inclined toward sheep until we raised a few and I came to realize just how absolutely stupid they are
Although, I guess it wasn't really all that baaa-d an experience

Mad fun is just what it is: mad and fun.. plus, clever. Love it!
dear Andrew... I love Sheep and Lambs... so I would love to travel and see
the countryside filled with Sheep... they give us beautiful Wool to make
sweaters and shawls for warmth.... even a Coat. Also Goats give us milk and cheese.
I live in a Bird Sanctuary. However, I need to live on a Farm where I could have Ducks and Geese,
as well as Chickens and Roosters... and the list goes on. How about Ewe? hugs, Pat
