Farmer's Wife Means Business

The young wide-eyed owlet was almost too cold to hoot He sat in the crook of the oak, looking at his left boot He needs a little cap, I will knit him the farmer’s wife said. Okay agreed her husband, but please do not make it red. If it is red he might be mistaken for a buzzard and hurt or worse. His wife ran to get her car keys, her i.d. and her new purse. Where are you going? I thought you had yarn already. If I am going to create, I want his hat brand new, Freddy. Her husband Fred knew enough to back off when she called him Freddy. A sign that she means business since they first started going steady. The next day she fitted the owlet way up high in the sycamore tree. Good grief! Said her farmer husband, he looks comfier than me!
