The Web Poetry Corner - Judith Miller - The Hen-House

The Hen-House

by

Judith Miller

At two o’clock in the morning
With a cock-a-doodle-doo,
We’d woken all the neighbours
And likely master too!

By three o’clock in the morning,
We’d avoided the farmer’s gun -
‘Til a redheaded giant descended,
Feigning Attila the Hun:

It was then the oldest cock,
Made such a loud to-do,
Bare hands were used to
Strangle him - what a hullabaloo!

And now it’s seven-thirty -
Fresh grain is in the bin,
To thank the farmer’s wife
Let’s sing in unison!

She thinks we will be still ...
She’s through the hen-house door ...
Now scare her with a doodle-doo -
Loud on the count of four!

COCK-A-DOODLE-DOO!
