caught a possum! Penned a poem!

[jkcmj]

With the sun gone down, and stars shining bright

The chickens were nestled in the coop for the night

Along came a creature, his hunger in full blossom

I would like to introduce you all to Ned the Possum!

He felt entitled to a chicken dinner, two he killed without sorrow,

He planned to eat the 2nd one, when he returned upon the morrow!

I lay out a trap to capture my new friend

Baited with thigh of chicken he had brought to his end.

I asked him this morning, "Was the chicken or your life worth more?"

His look told told me: "Good sir, the chicken, it was to die for!"

R.I.P. Ned... and your poem.

[jkcmj]

Ha! Apparently it was not the masterpiece I thought!

[123fish]

I was only teasing. It's actually pretty good.

[Raider4ever]

The poem ROCKED!! Excellent sir, excellent.

lol 50 teeth a shinin, I tracked one down 2 days ago, saw his tracks and the tail drag marks in the snow and eventually there he or she was, wedged in between some haybales, he along with potential equine disease or whatever it is, he's in a better place than my bales for the cows. That chicken.........an eye for an eye a tooth for a tooth, your chickens thank you at this time of holiday seasons.
