When I first published this poem. I a male focused just on the cock and the poem consisted in its entirety of only the first eight lines. After receiving  a comment from a hen, I revised the poem and added the last three lines.  sincerely typical male

young chicks
become
old hens

young cocks
become 
old dreamers 
remembering

cock-a-doodle-doo

cock-a-doodle-doo
while the hens cluck 
in their sweet dreams
