ahh baa-lambs
so very, very cute
delightful
skip and jump
there’s almost always
two, they’re twins
spring, summer
are both very nice
oh, but then…
they slow down
they’re more mature
just staring
so off to market
we must not mention this, no
bye, goodbye, baa-lambs
so something
very different now
more than good
we’ve some spuds
some lovely mint sauce
‘lamb for lunch’

I love to see gamboling lambs, although I don’t like to eat them.

Our fields are full of lambs at the moment. Shame they are an industry 😦

Such a lovely time… I can almost see them all around in North Wales when I used to drive along the A55 Expressway.

Oh no!! I love lamb chops, and lamb in general. Our mom used to make lamb chops for dinner when we were kids. But yes, it’s kind of sad to think where those lamb kebabs actually come from! 🐑🐑

I know. When I was a kid I managed not to think that lambs in fields were any kind of meat! Lucky me.
