I'Ve Got An Embarassing Secret

I have to spill my guts It has been on my mind It is making me quite nuts My rooster has a problem It is so hard to say Just please don't laugh at him He's OCD!! He paces back and forth Counting every step to a tee. Three up Three back Three up Three back! There is no help to be The worse you see He has plucked And plucked yes he Is naked as can be!!

Congratulations on your poem, Doris. Poor rooster. I hate it when that happens. Smiles! Your question about " Alouette" I remember a little about how to play. The it person sings the lyrics, while the group dance around the rose in a ring. In a sudden gesture the it person yells all fall down, and the one left standing is then the it person. It person has the option of command admist his song anywhere to say,"all fall down." Neat song and accompanying dance. Lots of exercise. Agape, Moses
