To my grandma and grandpa and all the hard working farmers of yesterday and today RH For the long summers in the cul de sac MK
A Noisy Good Morning A cocky morning crowing and a daybreak braying A snappy tap rapping and a nose nudge tapping Grandma ups the window sash and in struts Rexster up off Seed Sack's back over his head straight across the floor fluttering onto beds He's gonna peck He's gonna peck we both shout as we spring up and out But one last rooster doodle doo and Rexster swooshes through the window past Seed Sack's swaying straw hatted and still braying head and back onto his back Our summer days of farming fun have noisily begun
