STUD ROOSTER

A farmer went out one day and bought a brand new stud rooster for hischicken coop. The new rooster struts over to the old rooster and says, OK old fart, Time for you to retire.'The old rooster replies, 'Come on, surely you cannot handleALL of these chickens.Look what it has done to meCan't you just let me have the two old hens over in the corner?' The young rooster says,'Beat it: You are washed upand I am taking over.'The old rooster says'I tell you what, young stud.I will race you around the farmhouse. Whoever wins gets the exclusivedomain over the entire chicken coop. The young rooster laughs.'You know you don't stand a chance, old man.So, just to be fair,I will give you a head start.' The old rooster takes off running. About 15 seconds later the youngrooster takes off running after him. They round the front porch of the farmhouse and the young rooster hasclosed the gap. He is only about 5 feet behind the old rooster and gaining fast!The farmer, meanwhile, is sitting in his usual spot on the front porchwhen he sees the roosters running by.The Old Rooster is squawkingand running as hard as he can.The Farmer grabs his shotgun and- BOOM -he blows the young rooster to bits. The farmer sadly shakes his head andsays,'DANG.....third gay rooster I bought this month.

'Moral of this story? ....Don't mess with the OLD FARTS -age, skill, wisdom, and a little treachery always overcome educated fools and arrogance!


The Two of Us

So late at night
under the stars and sky
Just the two of us…
Secluded on a desolate beach
sand between our toes
nothing holding either of us back
Just the two of us…
Nothing between our skin
that will cause any friction
just our desires, needs, and wants.
Just the two of us…

happy and in love.
