@elaine54 Anyone in homesteading deserves a counter-poem.
The cock has crowed, and my neighbor’s out and about.
He’s come over to the fence and let out a shout.
He is just saying that if I had any brains,
I'd go inside and listen to Alice in Chains.
Oh, very good, Aed! Thanks for the effort - I admit to having to look up Alice in Chains to get the maximum benefit from your poem! I understand about professional children. My partner is one.
