richards odes

Where have all the sheep gone?

We thought that the economy was based on wool and lamb!
It appears as usual I don't know where I am!
Up until last evening hardly any sheep 
Only dairy cattle. No wonder I can't sleep!
The price of wool has fallen and now the price of milk
The farmers will be getting worms to produce more silk!
Ah well! It's St. Patrick's day we Irish can have fun.
The top o' the mornin' to yez each and every one!
