You thought you'd have an epitaph,
When you came near my calf.
I'm sorry I scared you and your brother,
I was just being a protective mother.
I'm glad you had the good sense,
To leap over that barbed wire fence.
Now that I'm calm,
I wish you no harm.
Perhaps if you knew,
I was scared too.
The thought of your dog's bite,
Gave me such a fright.
Please don't scream,
If you see me in a dream.
Give me a smile as you pass,
I'll be busy chewing grass.
And if our eyes meet,
Just think of something sweet.
Remember I'm a herbivore,
Not a Tyranosaur.
