"Trust"

I call them by name, 

they quickly come. 

Whoever said, 

chickens are dumb? 

As I sit on my porch, 

one jumps in my lap. 

As I pet her head, 

she takes a nap. 

Excited by her Trust, 

it's hard to believe, 

how much this chicken, 

chooses to trust me. 

I wanna be like my chickens, 

quickly come when God calls. 

To sit upon my father's lap, 

and take a rest from it all. 

I wanna be like my chicken, 

to trust with my eyes closed. 

Knowing the one who loves me, 

Smiles Softly as I doze.
