The cello slits on her nose release a melodious moo.
Her copper pelt is soft as a maidenhair.
Spittle sits in the silky folds of her mouth,
Like seeds of milky dew.
Through the heavy fringe at her eyes
A bovine Boadicea, horned and hairy
She watches me, unblinking,
Turns the rump of her rudder
Snorts and leaves, ponderous as a liner
Slipping out of a narrow harbour
The brown towe of her tail
Swinging medallions of dung.

Very beautiful :)

Thanks. I was a bit freaked out by this animal. It's much bigger than it looks. I could have got a closer shot but if it had charged at me I would be a gonner. Those horns are massive! Maybe it is very docile though. I don't know.
