How to Get Ahead In Life

Image

Now, if you've ever wondered
How to get a head in life
Just consult the chicken here,
Who loves this man's wife.

This chicken could teach a thing or two
To other flyers, like the bat:
She could teach them how to make themselves
Look like a really cool hat!

How do you get a head in life?
Ms. chicken learned this lesson:
Just flap your wings and aim high,
It's as easy as that, I am guessin.'

Yep, use what you got that works my dear!
Don’t you be goin’ back to bed;
This sure-footed chicken only had one leg –
But it didn’t keep her from getting a head.



"Be strong and courageous, then GOD will strengthen your heart."

Awww, Linner, I knew you'd love this chicken! I do too. No, don't know the couple....just was looking for a chicken picture to a song I wrote a while back, but couldn't find one that was running w/out a head, and that's what it's gotta be. :lol: :roll: But, I did find this and you know how the Lord is, He nudged me again. :D I'm SO GLAD you liked it and it brought back good memories for you. Keep smiling Lindy Lou! -Holmesy

that's one smart chicken, and I always thought chickens were sorta.. on the mentally challenged side.. but this chicken seems to have it all figured out.. you might say he's a"head" of the class..

Very cute and funny. So enjoyable I read it twice,

I just got home and changed it a little b/c I didn't take time w/it when I wrote it, I just threw it out there, but I read it out loud to myself and thought it needed changing a bit, so here it is again. Have a great rest of the weekend and hey! Thanks so much for stopping by, hope you will more often. -Dawn

Eva, you are just too sweet to say so....I try. The Lord even gives ideas and words for goofball stuff, isn't that too sweet?! Of course He does, for He created humor. I am made aware of that each when I look at my husband. hahahahahha! You thought I was going to say, "when I look in the mirror, didn't you?" Have a great rest of the weekend friend. -Dawn
