A billy goat with a yellow beard
Came to me and called me weird
But said I, unlike thee
Upon my face I do not pee!

Billy Goat did think a while
and on his yellow beard did suck
And then a strange, capricious smile
and spat on me. That cheeky buck!

A hole in the fence for the geese alone,
but the Billy goat did smile,
with a turn of his head, his horns lead through,
been in the orchard now a while.

I shook my head, and cleared my throat,
while Billy munched on grass
but when I turned my head, that goat
knocked me on my ass.

"The rule of no realm is mine. But all worthy things that are in peril as the world now stands, these are my care. And for my part, I shall not wholly fail in my task if anything that passes through this night can still grow fairer or bear fruit and flower again in days to come. For I too am a steward. Did you not know?" Gandolf

I might just miss that billy goat;
If so, its my own fault.
But with a fork and knife in hand,
will someone pass the salt?

And after time went 5 months hence
another billy climbed the fence
The dam in corner chewed her cud
as Billy landed with a thud
and took a fall
Says I my freezer is still sated
my knife so sharp however mated
to pairs of interleg protrusion
and finds itself a last solution
to suit us all

And then the entire population worshiped me like unto a god. Well, me and this tiny ad:
