In Bovine majesty she stands,
Her purple tail she swings,
The amethyst cow,
To my heart somehow,
Perfect joy she brings. --Purple Cow Parodies (Purple Cow)
What if Emily Dickinson, Edgar Allen Poe, John Keats, William Wordsworth, or Rudyard Kipling saw Gelett Burgess's elusive Purple Cow?

Parodies by Susan and David Hollander.
