Animal Tales

A bird, a dog and a croaking frog sat in a barn telling yarns with a cow and a calf just for a laugh; oh, the tales they told new stories and old like the chicken who made it to the other side and the rooster who tried but died also the one about the long gone old goat who chewed threw the rope around his throat; they talked well past midnight right up to first light that is until a big ol' fox walked in with a mile-wide grin, he said I'll give you a tale to tell that's new the one about the fox who ate every one of you; but, that old fox was a real sap he took one step forward then heard the trap go SNAP! the farmer came on the run in his hand a trusty old gun, now the animals do have a new tale to tell about the day an arrogant fox got blowed all to hell.
