Marilyn Lott - Cow Breath

Did you ever get so close to a cow
You could feel her warm breath on your face?
She continues chewing her cud thoughtfully
As you spend quality time in her space

Her nose is wet and once in awhile
Her tongue leaps out all curled high
Swipes across her nose and then
You hear her soft cow kind of sigh

She loves to spend time with you
You can tell by the way she behaves
And I have seen cows that follow you
Almost like a kid wanting to play

They seem to have a relaxing spirit
Never getting very excited
I think people would be much happier
If they would slow down and just try it

So if you ever get the chance, folks
To spend quality time with a cow
Watch her carefully and you will see
For tranquility she can show you how!
