Shoo

"There's a fox in the hen house father, Whatever what shall we do." "I'll fetch my gun my dear, You start shouting shoo" "I'm shouting shoo father, But the fox, he still remains." "I'm looking for my gun my dear, Just you shout shoo again." "Father I shouted shoo again, But he carried on instead. And father never mind your gun, For the chickens are all dead." "There's blood and feathers everywhere That fox, he had his fun. Now we'll have no eggs for breakfast, How I wish you'd found your gun."

Reminds me a bit of the work of Lewis Carroll. An entertaining read.

This was fun to read Gary. It had a whimsical yet fable feel to it. Nicely done.
