CHICKEN:



From a big brown egg he was hatched one day,
He was a cocky little fellow to his mum´s dismay,
Was fluffy, puffed & yellow with a strut of his own,
He practiced his crowing till he got the right tone.

He´s a good looking chicken, strutting the farm,
Showing all critters that he´s the king of the barn,
Handsome lil rooster, feathered green, red & gold,
With sharp yellowed toes so very piercing & bold.

Wearing his crown, scarlet deep & befitting a king,
Flirting hens broody by flapping his big gold wings,
A cock-doodle-doo, awakening siren in the dawn,
A how-do-you-do? Get up, now the sun is warm.

My little rooster´s not for finger-licking-picking,
Because he´s just the best looking little chicken,
So he´ll rule & reign the roost til his ripe old age,
And never be stuffed & eaten with onions & sage.
