Little Chickie warm and snug,
scratched the dirt, and ate a bug,
fluffed her feathers, settled close,
watched by mama, who loves her most.
Each morning, they go outside,
sometimes Chickie takes a ride,
up on mama's warm broad back,
far from things that bark or quack.
Eating worms, and pecking seeds,
momma clucks, and Chickie heeds.
Little Chickie, warm and fed,
Goes back home and goes to bed.
