The Cow

by Robert Louis Stevenson

From Standard Ebooks · standardebooks/robert-louis-stevenson_poetry

The friendly cow, all red and white, I love with all my heart: She gives me cream with all her might, To eat with apple-tart.
She wanders lowing here and there, And yet she cannot stray, All in the pleasant open air, The pleasant light of day;
And blown by all the winds that pass, And wet with all the showers, She walks among the meadow grass And eats the meadow flowers.
