MY SMALL CHICKS
My small
chicks
are beautiful.
They're so cute,
so little,
so silky,
so finite,
that in the world
there are no chicks
so pretty.
They chirp, run,
poke, jump,
they seek, they shout,
they come, they go,
they fight
like crazies
for a piece
of bread.
Lady
Mrs. Clueca
watches them
non stop.
She defends them
of cats
and she takes them out
for a walk.
They're so cute,
so little,
so silky,
so finite,
That in the world
there are no chicks
funniest
more beautiful
that my petite
chickens.
