Missing Cows

"23 Cows Are Missing",
and Mrs. McDonald thinks its a blessing,
but Mr. McDonald is grieved
and just a little bit peeved
at his wife's joyful attitude.

The cows mysteriously vanished
after the morning milking was finished
they disappeared without leaving a trace,
as if they stepped through a hole in time and space:
Mrs. McDonald expressed her gratitude.

What happened to the McDonald cows?
Where do they now browse?
Why did Mrs. McDonald express gratitude?
Why does she think its a blessing
"23 Cows Are Missing"?
