I live on a farm, where kids come and learn things. I’m not a human though, I am a cow. Moo moo or whatever, we have some kids coming today to see us, they are so boring! I stared with a close eye as the bus of kids arrived, luckily none of them seemed to notice me. The kids did lots of activities before they came to see us, there were four groups of kids.
The children are here. I am still sleeping, lying down in my favourite spot, right in the mud! They think that I am lazy and cute, but really I am just tired. The first group of kids came over, some of them tried to pat me, but I was busy sleeping. My friends really like it when people come and pat them, I don’t know why though.
The second group came, then the third. They kept trying to feed me grass and pet me, but I found it funny because they were just out of reach. A few kids called me lazy but I don’t mind because they are right, I love sleeping! I watched as the kids left to pet the other farm friends. I really don’t see the fun in walking up to them and getting pats and eating grass, we have people who take care of us and do that anyways!
The last group of kids for the day, finally! It’s super annoying being the first paddock that the kids come to, it’s like I don’t even get a warning! Some small girl said my name was ‘Ed Shearing” which is stupid! I don’t get shorn, the sheep do. I actually just realised it’s Ed Sheeran, not Ed Shearing, oops. I think Ed Sheeran is some ginger guy, wait is it because I’m ginger? Not funny. The girl said I am lazy and ginger, so mean!
I rate these kids a 4/10, I have seen worse but that Ed Sheeran kid ruined it! Other than the kids, I love my farm, I have amazing friends and cool people looking after me. The farm is a pleasant place to be.
Poem:
Lazy moo the big cow
He is mottled brown,
Because he sleeps in mud all day
While his friends just play and play!
I am tired, my friends are wild
They are crazy
More than you maybe.
Children are annoying
But they sometimes have me snoring
All they do it pat and feed
I would rather eat a weed.
Ka pai! Very creative writing like always. I really enjoyed how you included some laughter into it as well (Ed Sheering😂) can’t find anything for you to improve on like always, keep up the great mahi!
I like that you wrote from an animal’s point of view. Cool ideas, Chelsea. Well done!
