On the sixth day God created the animals... Does He have a sense of humor or what??? People tell me that my animals make them smile. God's amusing sense of design is what makes me smile! |
I love having chickens and roosters around. Love to hear them crow and cluck outside
my windows. Love farm fresh eggs. Many people have told stories of at least
one 'mean' rooster from their growing up years. We also had a mean one that we
called the 'Left Winged Rooster'. He reminded me of an out-law starring
in an old western movie. He sure was a mean old cuss! As kids, we were terrified
of him. None of us ever wanted to be around when my mom would need us to fetch
a vegetable or two out of the garden, or milk from the barn. We would spy out
the windows and door to see if he was anywhere in sight. Then make a mad dash,
hoping not to get trapped out there with him between us and the house. If we
did get trapped, he would stare us down, put his left wing to the ground and charge.
I do remember how revenge smelled sweet and tasted sweeter as the aroma of
barbaque chicken wafted through the air while he was being grilled for
supper one evening! |
