“Live for the moments you can’t put into words.” ~ Unknown
Of all the places at Shakertown that offered beauty, I found this quaint pen of chickens and hogs to be my favorite, for that day anyway. I watched them for the longest time. One hog was snoring. Chickens took turn about walking ’round them like Exhibit A before clicking the fence perimeter and retreating back to the snoring mounds. The gorgeous rooster, who seemed unusually nonplussed by humans, kept a careful eye on his girls though he was less enthusiastic about the hogs than they were. I know they’re not lions and lambs, but something about the pen put me in mind of them. Blessed peaceful communion. We humans could take a tip from these creatures.
