HELLO STEEMIANS,
Grandpa Had A Big Barn On His
Homestead. The Barn Was Where
Grandpa and Grandma Kept Most
Of The Homestead Animals,
Cows, White Chickens,
Black And Brown Hens
Pigs, Billy Goats
And Nanny Goats, Even Rabbits
And One Horse,
And The Rooster, Of Course
Every Morning Exactly As The
Clock Struck 6 AM
The Homestead Rooster Would
Scream
Cock A Doodle Do
Cock A Doodle Do
Cock A Doodle Do
Wait A Few Seconds
Then One More
Cock A Doodle Do
By This Time Grandpa
Was Up, Getting Ready To
Go Out There To Get Eggs
Inside The Barn
The Rooster
Would Be Waiting For
Grandpa,
Grandpa Would Go About His
Business And Feed The Hens
and Chickens,
Gather Eggs
Then,
All Of A Sudden
Wack
The Rooster Would
Sneak Up Behind Grandpa
In The Corner And Fly off
Of A Board Nailed To The Wall
About one To two Feet Away
And Go Right Towards
Grandpas Head
Grandpa Wore A Hat,
So, It Didn't Hurt Him
One Time, After About A Year Of
Having This Rooster,
The Rooster
Came Up Behind Grandpa And
Whacked Him On The Head
This Time Knocking His
Hat Off, Why How Brave Of
Rooster! Not For Long...
That Same Day,
Grandma Saw A Change
In Grandpa, A Scratch
On Grandpas Left Cheek About
two Inches Long, Grandma Asked
Grandpa How He Got The Scratch?
Grandpa Of Course Blew It Off
And Grandma Of Course Persisted
Til She Got An Answer After Supper
"The Rooster, The Rooster Did It
To Me"
Grandpa Blurted..
Grandma Then Sat The Dishes Down On
The Table, Wiped Her Hands Off On Her
Apron, Held Her Head Up High
And Went Out The Back Door To
The Hens And Chickens Straight
To The Rooster Hang Out Board
And Yelled At The Rooster
"Now I Told You
Leave Pa Alone And There Will
Be No More Roosters"
The Rooster Poked His Shoulders
Out And Stuck His Held High Peering
At Grandma With Her hands On Her Hips
Then
While Grandma Stood There, Not Moving
The Rooster Acting All Guilty Backed Down
Looked Down At The Ground And Could Make
Eye Contact With Grandma Again
Grandma Then Left The Barn Leaving
The Rooster Alone In His Rooster Guilt
The Next Day Grandpa Goes About His
Business And The Rooster Sitting
On The Board
On The Wall, Not Dare Moving An Inch
The Rooster Never Attacked Grandpa Again
There Is One Question About
The Rooster That Remains
How Did Grandma Even Know That The Rooster Was Doing This?
Grandpa Never Leaked A Word For A Whole Year, He Was Good
At Dodging, But, She Knew..

Let's Just Say...
Grandma Had A Way Of Finding Things Out,
A Mystery To This Day
And
Of Course
No More Roosters!
A Happy Ending For All
Even
The Rooster!
