Arriving at Red bank farm, near Morecambe by the sea,
The windy weather’s taken its gusty toll on me
In flusters from the blusters I play twister with the tents
When several swear words later , all my energy’s been spent!
So like a star shaped splat on the tent, I count to ten and try to calm
When onto the poles, rudely strolls a hen form the local farm
“Go away’ I say “ Can’t you see I’m having trouble!”
But the hen hell-bent, was well intent on giving me a cuddle
I try my best to shoo the fool and shove it in a clearing
But the reluctant hen, by then was just enjoying interfering
11 minutes later and the demon hen,
finally starts making feet,
While I battle with the gusts and forceful winds
before eventually admitting defeat
And then back turned, my guard now dropped, I hear I clucking sound,
Expecting to see the devil hen as soon as I turn around....
But there was no bobbing headed creature, there was no fluffy bird,
Just a farmers cow who’d become dethatched from his ever distant herd
But on turning back to sort the tent, the clucking did re-emerge
But all I could see when looking was Mr. Cow, munching on his verge
Suddenly I realised, this cow had just been clocked,
Together with the chicken, I was being frickin’ mocked
A clever hen impressionist, famous in the world of moos
But with this duo taunting, I refused to be amused
I wish the interfering chicken and the clucking mocking moo
Would cluck off out of here, ‘cause I’ve got far to much to do!
