I’m a little chicken
Me Pam Ayres Bit
I am a little chicken, I trot about all day
quietly a-pecking in the normal way
I ‘ave some corn each day and me oats about once
a week
The corn is quite delicious of the oats I cannot
speak!
The farmer treats me kindly ‘e treats me with
respect
but I’ve really only noticed it since ‘is foot
I pecked
I only pecked ‘is foot you know ‘cause I
couldn’t reach ‘is leg
oh! dear skuse me a minute while I just lay me egg
That feels a lot better, now, where did I get to,
oh! yes, about the farmer, well, I ‘spect
you’d peck ‘im too
‘e keeps shoving that cock in ‘ere and I
don’t like ‘im at all
‘e struts around with ‘is neck all stretched
trying to look tall
still, I’ll just keep on pecking ‘cause what
‘appens if I stop
is the other greedy ‘ens in ‘ere will come and
eat the lot
and I’m just a little chicken who trot’s about
all day
quietly a-pecking in the normal way.

This how Fruitcakes “I’m a little chicken” inspired me to write this, my first ,and probably last, poem.
Oh , Fruitcake.
(With apologies to Pam Ayres)
I liked your little poem,
Well, I liked it quite a lot,
So I thought I’d write a poem,
To show you wot I got.
So ‘ere I sit with pen in ‘and,
Oi’m finkin’ “aint it ‘ard,
To fink up lots of lines that rhyme,
Can I be ‘ampshires bard “?
I’m totally at top speed now,
I don’t feel such a clot,
The words are coming thick and fast…
But suddenly , they’re not…!
Where’s Fruitcake when you want ‘er ?,
Just as you’ve lost your thread,
I think I’ll leave the rhymes to her,
And me ? I’m off to bed !!
That was brilliant !
