Poem
Sandy woke at the break of dawn, When the rooster crowed his morning song, Up she jumped and quickly she ran. "Is today the day ? " her thoughts began. There was her father, she stood at his feet, She let out a sigh as he started to speak " I'm sorry hun " he started to say. " It's coming soon, but today's not the day" So off she went , to start with her chores. A day on the farm is never a bore. To the chicken coupe where she hoped they did lay, So they could have eggs for breakfast that day. But as she approached , what did she find, Not a single egg, came from their behind. Not to fret as she started to sing. Thinking chickens like music and eggs they will bring. . All of a sudden she heard a soft cluck. And there were 5 eggs, she quickly did pluck. " Thankyou dear Chickens , now tomorrow same time! " " And maybe I'll sing you a favorite of mine " The rest of the day she could think just one thing. " I wonder just what tomorrow will bring". Off then to bed , and while dreaming bout' the morn, Wasn't to long before she ran to the door. He just shook his head, with a heartbroken face, Then she walked away ,without any race. Off to the ducks later that day. Letting them roam and pick up the hay. But as she was counting , one was not there. She frantically looked, as this brought her a scare. " Where did you go ? " she asked curiously And just as she questioned, he came waddling furiously. One purple duck came dripping by. Brought Sandy to laughter and to a near cry. " What in the world happened to you " Then she spotted a pail of purple beet juice. He had jumped in , and coloured his feathers. Now he was purple and slightly embarrassed . Night came to play , and she glanced at the sky. Just in time for a shooting star to fly by. Only one wish came to her mind. She finished " ... And, If for tomorrow , that would really be kind " She climbed into bed , and to her surprise. He awoke her that night, with excited eyes. "It's happening now, come on, and hurry!" Still In her pajamas, she made off in a scurry. It was finally time, she ran to her horse. Already in labour....and, a bit out of sorts. Her father assisted, Sandy watched with glee. Softly assuring" Your doing great, Daisy " Baby "Violet" was born, unproportioned and clumsy, "Oh Dad, she's perfect, I am so happy " Violet grew up , beautiful as the sun.. "Daisy" was proud, you could tell by her run. Sandy cherishes always that day in her heart. And reminds everyone...always wish on a star. The End
