Phen-Sen, the Hen

Once upon a time long ago
there lived a hen named Phen-Sen
She had a special cluck don’t you know
that sounded like a Jenny wren

All the other hens made fun of her
laughing as she walked by
Her strange clucking created such a stir
all the roosters gave her the evil eye

One day the master sent for the Vet
to examine his poor little Phen-Sen
He looked her over, then shook his head
saying, “I want to hear her cluck again”

Phen-Sen opened her mouth to cluck
and each of the hens lifted their head
What a strange piece of luck
she sounded like a wren instead

A strange thing happened that day
as all the hens gathered around
Every hen, a golden egg, did lay
as they listened to the wren sound

No longer did her voice seem strange
but melodic and heavenly to hear
In egg laying, there was an abrupt change
if Phen-Sen clucked, a golden egg did appear

The master was in such a happy mood
because of the many eggs of gold
He gave the hens extra rations of food
it was truly a sight to behold

Then one day Phen-Sen lost her voice
Nothing came when she tried to cluck
The master no longer had cause to rejoice
Phen-Sen might as well have been a duck

Phen-Sen walked around feeling sad
She felt she had let all the hens down
and the master would think her bad
What had happened to this hen of renown

The hens decided to help bring her some cheer
by singing to her the “Hen-Laying Lullaby”
"Phen-Sen, there is more then a clucking career
Why don’t you give laying eggs a try"

Phen-Sen was grateful to each friend
for lifting her spirits that day
Her “wren voice” had been on lend
The laying of eggs must now get underway

Phen-Sen became part of the laying team
to produce eggs each day of quality
They helped to fulfill the master’s dream
of holding a Master’s Egg Laying Degree
