He Xiaozhu

Whose Cow Is This

Down along the path
came a cow
In the distance followed
a person
Whose cow is this?
asked a passerby
The person following in the distance
yelled out in reply
It’s the Xie family cow
Oh, yes: we had a look at the Xie family cow
It had already gone up the path
A smallish heifer

WHOSE COW IS THIS

Close

Whose Cow Is This

Down along the path
came a cow
In the distance followed
a person
Whose cow is this?
asked a passerby
The person following in the distance
yelled out in reply
It’s the Xie family cow
Oh, yes: we had a look at the Xie family cow
It had already gone up the path
A smallish heifer

Whose Cow Is This

Down along the path
came a cow
In the distance followed
a person
Whose cow is this?
asked a passerby
The person following in the distance
yelled out in reply
It’s the Xie family cow
Oh, yes: we had a look at the Xie family cow
It had already gone up the path
A smallish heifer
