While I Sat Near Chicken Coop In Woods At Home.... [ I Thought You'd Like To Know! ]

Rating: 5.0


When nose secretions get hard & THICK,
my fingernail 'does the TRICK'.

It takes time, that stuff, to PICK.
When done, my finger, I do LICK.

If tasty, I just swallow WHOLE,
no need to chew, as do some I KNOW.


(June 2nd,2023)

p.s. The BEARS (black bears) are back this year, prowling.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Love it or leave it. ;) bri .....We live in the hills of NW South Carolina. I'm back in the house and chickens are squawking. Perhaps they see/sense the bear? Or maybe they just miss me? ? ;)

Actually the not-TOO-large bear returned after I returned to the house. I heard chickens squawking and the bear got access to 2 of our five (now 3) chickens and had her/himself a chicken snack as I watched.

It must be very scary? I have seen these bear in their natural habitat in Indian Jungle called Tadoba, byt they are not ad big as Grizzly bear

I would not have watched the bear eat my chickens. After making use of one of my high-powered rifles, my chickens could have watched me eat the bear!

I'm waiting for Kim Barney's comment(s) . Kim et al, we are down (not goose down) to one feisty hen who has avoided the now-given-up-the-prowl-here bear. bri : )

I hope your snack was sweet as sugar... now let's have a poem about the bear and not the booger.

Interesting poem. More of fiction than real.

No fiction here, Sheeya. Bri's bear and his boogers are real.
