Some defenses just don't work good enough.



The Lord grows
and only the rose knows,
why it has thorns.
Maybe the bull knows
why he has horns.
Then again he's just another dumb creature,
thinking just isn't a perfected feature.
Waiting in the field all day grazing,
only to end a steak pleasing.

Yeeee hi,
there'll be no easy pickings,
like you humans do the chickens.
Product of about a three person meal,
Kentuky fried has the deal.
Hey dumb bird frying,
you should have been better at flying.

Rose thorns stick,
surely makes it harder to pick.
Animals trying to eat it,
watchout for the thorns prick.
And you humanoids gathering roses,
no dumb stupid composes.
You might get stuck,
which is a little better than the chickens luck.
But make no mistake,
the bull also wanted to keep his steak.

this reminds me of the disertations in "The Little prince" on why roses have thorns--a very meaningful discourse actually-

Enjoyed the humor in this one my friend...I always said the the chicken was one of the dumbest animals on earth. I looked outside during our recent snow, beside the barn in a row stood five or six chickens on one foot with snow piling up around them and on them...the door to the barn was open....go figure huh! So glad you're back at the den!
Blessings,
Joyce B.
