The Pain of Delivery

The day I born my pride, I was a jackass ;when nursing him, I was a plague ; today he flies about, All calls me mother of Nation. Smile in pain of delivery, Rejoice in tackling problem; The ovulation of congratulation, Deeps its roots in both. When yolks dare eagles’ beaks, they Grow combs and crow; they prune their Breasts and bristle up their wings,but Rot is the egg in brood which for fear Of eagles’claws weeps not to be a chick.

I especially enjoyed this one today kayode..not only because it is outstanding..but because I raise chickens.and just hatched 7 new chicks in my livingroom during an ice storm this weekend...two days old and they already prune their breasts and bristle up their wings...tiny little things...acting so big

A most ingenious piece. I thought "the ovulation of congratulation" would fit nicely. I very much enjoyed this piece Kayod.
