Picking up Chicks...
Dear Muthuh,
The Chicken and the Horse
On the farm lived a chicken and a horse, both of whom loved to
play together. One day the two were playing, when the horse fell into a
bog and began to sink. Scared for his life, the horse whinnied for the
chicken to go get the farmer for help! Off the chicken ran, back to the
farm. Arriving at the farm, he searched and searched for the farmer,
but to no avail, for he had gone to town with the only tractor. Running
around, the chicken spied the farmer's new Harley. Finding the keys in
the ignition, the chicken sped off with a length of rope hoping he
still had time to save his friend's life. Back at the bog, the horse was
surprised, but happy, to see the chicken arrive on the shiny Harley, and
he managed to get a hold of the loop of rope the chicken tossed to him.
After tying the other end to the rear bumper of the farmer's bike, the
chicken then drove slowly forward and, with the aid of the powerful
bike, rescued the horse!
Happy and proud, the chicken rode the Harley back to the
farmhouse, and the farmer was none the wiser when he returned. The
friendship between the two animals was cemented: Best Buddies, Best
Pals.
A few weeks later, the chicken fell into a mud pit, and soon, he
too, began to sink and cried out to the horse to save his life! The
horse thought a moment, walked over, and straddled the large puddle.
Looking underneath, he told the chicken to grab his hangy-down thing and
he would then lift him out of the pit. The chicken got a good grip, and
the horse pulled him up and out, saving his life.
The moral of the story is? ( yep, there's a moral! )
