'The Rest of The Story?'


We have theorized my friends
on why the chicken crossed,
but who?, and when?, and where?, and how?
why are THESE questions lost?


Was she a HAPPY chicken friends?
. . . or a fowl by tempest tossed?
was it a bitter Winter's night
with howling wind and frost?


Perchance a lonely country road?
was it on foot she crossed?
Did she fall down an icy hill
and slide the road, across?
and did she meet the farmer's wheels?
So sad . . . . ( a roaster lost! )


So sigh, and contemplate my friends,
Oh what a bitter pill!
a lovely bird, who dreamed her dreams,
yet ends her life, 'Road Kill.'
