THERE WAS ONCE A ROOSTER,HIS COLOR WAS BLUE,
I KNOW THAT YOU ARE T5HINKING THAT HE WAAS A STRANGE HUE.
I GOT HIM AS A BLUE CHICK AT EASTER,SO I NAMED HIM THE SAME,
IT'S TRUE THAT BLUE WAS ROOSTER,BUT HE WAS AWFULLY TAME.
HE WOULD LAY UPON MY CHEST TO CATCH A QUICK SLEEP,
AS HE LAY THERE,I WATCHED HIM,AND STARTED TO WEEP.
I LOVE HIM SO MUCH,AND NOW HE IS GONE,
HE WAS ALMOST 9 YRS OLD,WHEN HE HAD FADED BY DAWN.
HE IS WITH THE LORD NOW,I MISS HIM SO MUCH,
I STILL FIND BLUE FEATHERS IN MY WALLET AND SUCH.
HE IS WITH THE LORD NOW,AND HAS NOTHING TO FEAR,
DON'T CRY FOR ME,FOR HIS LOVE IS STILL HERE.

Aww☺️
I like your piece. I remember when there was a period in my life, and I was feeling down. My pet was a Jack Russel Terrior. She was beautiful. I named her Mango. Persistence is key
he was my only friend,then he passed away and then i felt alone.until now.
Thank you tepo,I really appreciate it.

Thank you Syd,I really appreciate that.
He will always be with you and look over you.
First very beautiful, I love it people who are not animal lovers just don't understand, it's like losing your child. Again just beautiful poem, second you gave him food coloring? Did it really change his coloring, how? Sorry but I'm curious.
I put a few drops of blue food coloring on his white feathers at bathtime,let it set for a few minutes than rinsed it off.He stayed blue for a few months.
Wow, I didn't know you can do that I thought maybe you put coloring in his water, I heard something about that changes birds color
Yeah I heard that too,but I didn't want to take a chance of it being poisonous for a bird to ingest
But on the surface it is perfectly safe
