The Egg and Who? I live in country, so I know, Every day I need to go Out to the mailbox, where I'll find, Mail the postman leaves behind. One day I got a strange surprise. There before my startled eyes, A hen's egg sat!A perfect sphere. I wondered who had left it here? And did they giggle gleefully To think how this would puzzle me? I guess I'll probably never know Who played this joke on me and so I'll treat it like a little gift And it will give my dog a lift, When I prepare it for his lunch. Whoever left it, thanks a bunch!!

Hi Karen: The dog did indeed enjoy his lunch. An egg is not something he gets often! Still no clue as to left it, but I now know who has chickens out here!! I must not jump to conclusions however! Betty Lou Betty Lou Hebert |
