An amateur star gazer named "Little"
was staring skyward one night,
amazed at the Autumn's full moon,
his feathers reflecting the light.

Satellites crossing the skyways,
evidence of man's high tech,
when a giant ball of light grew,
from just a tiny light speck.
                                             
Terrified, he started running,
and squawking, "The sky is falling"
his fellow chickens were laughing
such stupidity was so appaling.

No sooner had the laughter started,
the meteor loomed overhead,
and that's the end of the story,
the entire chicken coops dead.
