The Family Hunt

 

We come from all over for a few days of  hunting .

It does not matter how many pheasants

We shot and cleaned .

The thing is we are together as one .

We talk about last year's hunt

And who is not with us this year .

Oh the birds we can hear .

I will take snap shots when ever .

We all try to stay worm one day and cool the next .

We always talk about the birds that got away .

A hunter may loose his hat and his cool

And also the bird in the same field .

The hunting dog may not find  the bird ,

But she will stay cool even when her neck

And belly gets scratched up  .

Our little bird dogs had no luck.

We may get 10 birds in one day and 5 the next .

Nobody really counts .

 

One night we all eat lasagna

And we talk about who eats to much

And about who drinks to much of this and that

Even those who drink from a box !

We always talk about how much

Sleep we all miss ,

But we will all get up tomorrow .

As a family we will have fun .

We will shut and shut and even miss ,

But we will talk and laugh

And play in the fields .

Who  has the keys to the pick-up

At the end of the trees !!!

The birds are in the field

And in the air .

Who is missing the birds

And who is laughing ?

Who is counting what ,

Because we are family !!!!!!
