Bantam "babe"
Babe, she was a Bantam,
And lots of eggs she laid.
While others ruled the henhouse
It was in the yard she stayed.
Harvey loved his favorite
And when he drank iced tea,
The hen hopped on the table
And drank enough for three!
It was an odd activity,
After all she was a chicken.
But, Harvey loved her more than us.
Their friendship was a thick 'un.
If you wanted to visit Harvey,
In the backyard where he'd rather,
I'd suggest you learn to drink iced tea
And maybe grow some feathers!
