She Is a Little Hen

She is a little hen,
Rambling in the meadows,
Wandering around the grasses often,
Pecks the maize falling from windows. 

She is a little hen,
Yet a mother of ten; 
Fills the stomach with her peck, 
With her long flexible neck.

She is a little hen,
Dwells in her little den,
Cackles loud when her chicks cry, 
Spreads her little wings to fly.

She is a little hen,
Wanders in the garden, 
Stays away from hawks with pace;
Chirping sounds fills the place.
