Ode to a Flaming Cow

Cassidy Melczak

Flaming cow,
Where are you now?
To Heaven's Gates
You flee

In your belly
Is something smelly
When it comes out
You belch

So sad you smoke
Now your heart is broke
You are but charred ash
You see

Your belch caught fire
And like a funeral pyre
All your future, now
You squelch


Of all my flaming cow poems I like this one the best. Mainly because it rhymes the best, but also because it started me on a 10-poem ode-a-rama frenzy, now those were scary times...
