๐๐ A Chickens Christmas Prayer ๐๐
As the festive time approaches, and peoples minds are busy-
With lists and cards and presents, until their feeling dizzy..
I ask you'll spare a moment, in the hectic days ahead,
To remember all us chickens, both the living and the dead.
To those you saved just yesterday, to those you'll save tomorrow,
To every hen who suffered, was abused or facing sorrow.
To the girls who knew of freedom, even if that time was brief -
Because you took the time to try to change our tearful grief.
All the hens you tried to comfort, when they all looked at their worst,
All the ladies who you cuddled, who you talked to and you nursed.
To you we were important, we all had lives that mattered,
Even if our lives were tragic, so neglected, sad or battered.
You changed our worlds around us, by a welcome to your home,
No longer were we fearful, we weren't frightened or alone.
You made a difference to our lives, the freedom that you shared,
It made us all so happy, that you were the one who cared.
And if we have one wish, at this festive time of year -
It will be that when you think of us - to please not shed a tear.
You shared a taste of freedom, which so many fail to see -
You gave to us the pleasure of what it feels like to be free.
For that we cannot thank you, if we spent ten thousand years,
So the last thing we would want to see are eyes so filled with tears.
The best type of memorial, should that be what you would like,
Is to adopt another chicken, and save them from such plight.
So please don't ever grieve us, don't feel any guilt or shame
You gave to us such blessings, both a home, and then a name...
And from heaven I will wish you, not a sad face or a tear-
But lots of Christmas wishes, for a hen filled brand new year.
