My Karakuls
(by Ramona Butt)
I went to the barn tonight and I found
A set of twins; already up and around
Still wobbly and wet, yet strong as could be
A shepherd's delight of the Karakul breed
One was black with a little white
The other all black and what a sight
Both were ewe lambs and I smiled with pride
As they both finished nursing, and lay down at her side
The ewe was proud too, as anyone could tell
She had done it by herself, and all had gone well
The Karakul breed, so strong and proud
Has survived through the ages and still is around
The Karakul breed, beautiful and true
The right breed for me, the right breed for you.
