Silly Billy was the name,
Of my pet goat,
He always did such crazy things
Like try to steer a boat!

He even went to school one day,
And sat in on a class,
He handed in a paper,
In which he got a pass!

He always did amaze me,
At all that he could do,
He even bossed the cows around,
Once he learned to moo!

Billy was a happy goat
And fun to have around,
I'd laugh so hard, at jokes he'd tell,
I'd be rolling on the gound!

One day when he was hungry,
He ate my father's hoe,
And soon my Dad was shouting,
"That goat has got to go!"

Poor Billy must have heard it all,
Of that which Pa did say,
For then we heard, the engine roar,
As he drove our car away!

Dear, Silly Billy,
I miss you very much,
I hope you'll write me letters
And always keep in touch!

Linda,  you do this very very well...You
and our infamous, or is it famous?...
Balladeer should get together in a duet
some time....  Such a treat that would be
for us all...and maybe you can teach him
a trick or two....  Seems he has been stuck
lately...and the words don't flow very well.

Wake up Michael!!!!!  Here comes the Earth's
Angel...after you....

Magnus---I am profoundly moved by your resounding endorsements of my funny little ditties (note: that last word started with a "d"! HeHeHe!)

And to Balladeer (if you drop by), I think your exhaulted position, here at PIP, will be secure for years to come! (Barry, thanks for the tongue-in cheek compliment!)

Thanks again!
Linda

(giggles in delight) Oh my gosh, yes, you just have to hook up with Balladeer, or Toerag, whichever you prefer! LOL! Move over, there's a new goat in town, I love this, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Linda, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

ROTFL, Billy must have been one special goat! I enjoyed this, and had a good belly laughs as I pictured that goat driving down the highway.
He ate a hoe????
