Today I went to a man who had some sheep

and I looked at one

and it was a magic sheep

and it had wings,

and the man said this was a very

precious sheep

so when my mom and dad

and the man who owned the sheep

were looking at a different one

I got on, just to see if it would carry me off

and then it went with its little legs outside

and flew up to heaven

and then it fell down, big bump on his head,

then the wings broke off,

his horns turned into a knuckle

his feet were crumpled

he walked on his nails

his neck was torn open

and that’s a very sad story

because he’s dead now.
