The golden strands are prickly
The spotted fur is soft
The goat is mighty sullen
I like my horse a lot
The swing can go quite high
And when my energy is low,
I jump on, grab hold
and let the swing go
I walk under hot blazes of light
As my red hair tumbles, burns bright
And when I ride
I’m not alone
Teddy, my horse
is with me
The wind blows between my hair, and
I’m riding pretty swiftly
Except that he’s just walking
We’re going around the ring
But I don’t mind, I suppose
I love my company!
And the cats, ever so beautiful
They hid from me at first
But really, they just shouldn’t
I’ve known them since weeks after their birth!
I pick one up, on my lap he goes
He’s soft and very young
I sit on the porch swing that isn’t mine
and watch the little kids play and cry
It feels like all day, I always think
It feels I’ve been here so long
And later, it’s finally time to go home
Until next time, farm I rome
And horses I have known since young
Plus roosters and their evening drum
Goodbye cats who meow and hide
Goodbye farm dog who runs behind
Goodbye funny guy who calls me
“Jillington!”
Goodbye little boy who wrestles with his friend
Goodbye nice person who’s friends with Kim
Goodbye dirty goats
And waddling ducks
Goodbye captured lizard…
and good luck
Goodbye old farm friend of mine
My heart is yours, and yours mine
I’ll be back
