Louis The Sheep

Mrs Mancini's wether Louis is twelve years old today
As sheep go for himself  he is doing quite okay
A hectare of ground all to himself  with plenty of grass for to eat
Unlike most sheep he was not born to be killed for his meat
As a year old wether she bought Louis from her neighbour farmer Joe
This is going back in time eleven years ago
She liked him due to his darkish brown face
Familiar to his breed of sheep of suffolk race
Mrs Mancini a widow named the sheep after Louis her grandson
Who now is the father of a young daughter at the age of thirty one
She feels so proud of her wether says he is the best lawn mower in the town
That she does not need to pay anyone money for to keep the grass down
Louis looking quite contented chewing his cud lay
It does seem that he is enjoying his birthday.
