O'siyo Oginalii Tsilugi - Hello friends - Welcome - to My first blog. A place to share. |
The hen house had been very busy that week, preparing for the upcoming day of Easter. Henrietta, the head hen, made sure all the nests were in proper order. The Master would be in anytime to deliver his usual encouragement. Suddenly, Henrietta jerked her head up and gave out a loud cackle, "Places everyone quick, here he comes!" Scurrying to their nests, silence quickly fell over the hen house as the heavy footsteps stopped inside the door. "OK, you gals, it's that time of the year, either you produce or you'll find yourself in the pot!" For a week these little hens worked very hard and by the eve of Easter had reached their quota. The Master returned and found them hanging over their piles of eggs; each measuring three feet high. Exhausted, they laid there with their wings drooping to their sides and their little red tongues extending out of the corners of their beaks. Taking out his cell phone, he placed it to his ear and called his marketing partner, Peter.
