Who Was First?

It's the age old question.

 WHO WAS FIRST?

 

A chicken and an egg

Were having a race.

Twice around the farm

At a sizzling pace.

 

I didn’t see the finish,

I missed the last leg.

I wonder who was first,

The chicken or the egg.

I had the breast first, and then, ate the leg.

Who knows, and after having that question asked yet again . . . Who cares?

Another clever play on words, this time a play on the age-old question of origins. John

A very difficult one,
no chicken, no egg,
no egg, no chicken!
It takes a Michael to solve that!
