In the Heart of the Forest
In Manipur's lush forests so bright, Khamba and Nongban ventured with delight, Seeking blooms to adorn with care, An altar to Lord Thangjing, their hearts were sworn to share. Through dense woods, Khamba's path did wind, Wildflowers' scent and earth's damp design, Birds sang sweet, leaves rustled free, A waterfall's roar, a sight to see. A towering tree, with orchids so fine, Hanging...

Respect from the hawks
Near the yard, I heard the mother bird's loud cluck, A signal to pull a sly trick on the hick. Yuck! Her chicks all ran wild and scampered amok, Scattered by the bumpkin swinging a big stick. The dispersed chicks drew a cast of circling hawks, That were happy to see meals within their grasp....

Her parents were startled she wanted this pet. At least it’s not a dragon said her Cousin Shet. Or a male peacock said...

Premium Member Mother Hen
I felt great calmness and perfect peace. I had the feelings of a poor man who has just come under the protection of the Royal Family, and has obtained an annual pension for life-the dreadful fear of poverty and want having left his house for ever; I felt the safety and shelter which the little...

Premium Member If You Can Ignore the Hen
If you can ignore the hen, the date will be fine. She was not sure what this cryptic message meant. He arrived with a hen on his head, ready to dine. Like others, her heart immediately turned to cement. She made an excuse and left quickly enough. Like all the others, he told his disbelieving brother. He never tired of talking...

I liked her a lot when I realized she was my henhouse host. She played Beach boy’s music, and you know it’s always right. She was dancing with joyful...

Soft-shelled things by their sources laid On spots assuring them no raid: In my poultry picked up by maid, With care handled or her upbraid “Boiled or Omelets but with bread, For my breakfast do as I’ve said!” I’d quip: Mirror Image of Earth!

When I loved the Hen was then: A hen sings not like a wren; Hence, not in my Good Books Hen While, there, safe and sound Wren! The sounds hens make not for pen If poets did adore them: when? He was no poet: George O Ben, Never a verse dropped: Friend ken. Hens Ben loved fried as chicken, Time Ken would invade kitchen... Prefer...
