I remember this from when I was a child. I love the silliness of it - there is a certain delight and humor in the concept of a purple cow. This poem is like a lot of Ogden Nash's poetry. Silly and fun. My parents had a book of Ogden Nash's poetry when I was growing up, but I don't know what became of it.
"Slavery ended in medieval Europe only because the church extended its sacraments to all slaves and then managed to impose a ban on the enslavement of Christians (and of Jews). Within the context of medieval Europe, that prohibition was effectively a rule of universal abolition. "— Rodney Stark

Very cute. Do purple cows give grape juice? Just wondering.
Good point! I didn't think of that! :D

That's cute. But why the long empty portion of the video clip?
Thanks. I didn't know who wrote that little rhyme. And I join TACParent in asking what purple cows produce. Purple milk? Grape juice? Grape soda? :-)

Gotta love Ogden Nash!
I think purple cows produce purple milk, myself.
The empty part of the vid is my fault. It was done a while ago.
