MERE CHICKENS

Who knew

she’d take to chickens

like she did— 

mere chickens?

(Oh, to hear her unabashed calls

“Chickens! chick, 

chick, chick—ons!”

to see her care for them 

and them, apparently, for her,

and to know even the old rooster

respects her).

  1. My daughter is the same with her chickens. She’s hand fed them since they were chicks so they’re like pets.

  2. Maybe we should collaborate on a book called: I Married a Chicken Addict.
    I believe your wife and mine would have a lot to talk about. Great pictures!
