As I park the truck in front of my house
four bovine beasts walk from the yard
stepping around tricycles
a mile from their ranch
truant
shuffling right in front of me
looking apologetic
caught in the act
just like neighborhood children
who in spite of my protests
take a shortcut through the garden
from the canyon to the road.
A Shasta daisy somehow sticks
to a Holstein's tail
which, flicked,
detaches to fall at my feet.
Thank you, cow.
Now scram.
