Consider the egg. It's a miracle,
A thing so diverse for its size
That we hardly can help growing lyrical
When given the Pullet Surprise.
The scope of this peerless comestible
Must drive other foods to despair
Since it's not only fully digestible
But great for shampooing the hair.
It's boilable, poachable, fryable;
It scrambles, it makes a sauce thicken.
It's also the only reliable
Device for producing a chicken.

(This super-sized chicken pin cushion was made, not by an egg, but by Laurie Waddell and given to me as a gift a couple years ago! Thanks, Laurie!)
Happy Spring! Happy Stitching!
