Analysis of Moo-ving Away



There once was a cow who would moo
With nothing else better to do.
His giving of milk went away
And so, he was let go one day.
He traveled to each farm near by
With much hope to move there and try.
He stayed with a simple "handshake",
But later learned they needed steak!
