I am the voice of the voiceless:
Through me, the dumb shall speak;
Till the deaf world’s ear be made to hear
The cry of the wordless weak.
—from a poem by Ella Wheeler Wilcox, early 20th-century poet
My family got Henny, Penny,
Fran, Gertrude, Penelope, and
Margaret from Mother Hen
Chicken Rescue.
I love them all, but Margaret is
my best hen friend. When I sit on
the ground, she jumps into my
lap and tucks her head under my
arm. When I stroke her back, she
makes a funny sound, kind of like
a purring cat.
