Liam and the Llama

Grandma Baadsgaard

Happy Birthday to a very special six year old. I love you Liam

Said Liam to the Llama,

“How are you today?”

“Why I am terrific

What else can I say?”

Said Liam to the Llama,

“You have such big long ears.”

“Yes, they look like bananas

Straight up and long spears.”

Said Liam to the Llama,

“You have such narrow feat.”

“They are great for dancing

The two-set can’t be beat.”

Said Liam to the Llama,

“Do you like to chew your cud?”

“Why I sure do and I also

Like to sit in mud.”

Said Liam to the Llama,

“Your fur is oh so soft.”

“If you spin and weave it

I make blankets for your loft.”

 Said Liam to the Llama,

“Are you cousins with the camel?”

“We both like to chew our cud.

And our stories tend to ramble.”

Said Liam to the Llama,

“Do you hum babies to sleep?”

I like to nuzzle my wee ones)

So close our hearts will keep.”

Said Liam to the Llama,

“Why is your fur white, brown or black?”

“So I can make my wool into rugs.

Or a fine coat if you lack.”

Said Liam to the Llama,

“You’re so stout to pack my stuff.”

“Yes I’m strong and agile

And really pretty buff.”

Said Liam to the Llama,

“Will you be my friend?”

“You bet I will dear Liam

Right up till the end.”
