He Is Herding the Hens

Where is the new foreman I asked. He’s down in the barn, herding the hens I ran right down. Hens are quite a task. He had brand new bib overalls; he fit right in He’s a little young isn’t he? I asked my mom You were younger, she quickly reminded me The hens took to him like a hypnotic ‘om’. I was the proudest parent I could ever be.

I saw a cute photo of a toddler in new bibbed overalls feeding fifty hens; it was adorable! Of course he was also wearing a cowboy hat.
