Far away on

A lush green farm

Tucked away in a corner

Stood a wooden

Red roofed barn

Within it were

Cackling hens

Protected by

A rooster

Making sure

His harem

Comes to no harm

 

As the darkness fell

There was silence

In the air

“Noone was stirring

Not even a mouse”

 

Slowly as the

Curtain of

Darkness was

Lifted and

As the moon

As well the stars

Bid Adieu

The proud

Rooster realized

It was time to say:

‘Cock A Doodle Doo”

Wishing each & every one

Norooz Phirooz

 

Choicest Blessings
