Crazy cows carved a covenant canoe, Crashing, colliding, causing kooky ado. Careening down the cascading creek, Cheerfully chuckling and cheek to cheek. Curious cats joined the chaotic cruise, Climbing, clinging with colorful shoes. Curvaceous coyotes clumsily cavorted, Creating a comical covenant, surely sorted. Cackling chickens, cackling with glee, Cuddled close on the covenant, you see. Crackers, cookies, and cans in hand, Celebrating the covenant, oh so grand! Confetti fluttered, confetti flew, Covering the covenant in a colorful hue. Corks popped and laughter soared, Covenant festivities, never to be ignored. Chapstick, clown shoes, and crayons, oh my, Covenant cavalcade reaching for the sky. Champagne corks and cotton candy, Creating a covenant, oh so dandy! Cupcakes, cookies, and caramel candy, Consumed on the covenant, oh how handy. Crazy, joyous, and full of mirth, The covenant celebration, the greatest on Earth!
