I told Corey about my loss yesterday.
My landlord shared a sweet story with me,
His youngest of three,
Loved their five chickens,
Everyday after school,
His youngest son,
He’d give them rides in the wagon,
This particular afternoon was sad,
He held a chicken he loved,
It tried to fly from his arms,
Fell to the earth,
Stopped moving,
Corey’s son cried his eyes out,
Corey said it was just a chicken,
I said if you love something it is never just,
