HER VOICE IS SHRILL
I press my face
against the screen.
What is it, Nanna?
Whatâs wrong?
I call.
She sees me at the window.
Doe,
didnât you close
the chicken gate
before you went indoors?
I did!
I say.
Well, itâs wide open now!
Thatâs when I remember.
The rusted wire on the gate loop!
It must have snapped!
I FIND MRS. CRUMLY
Up near the road.
Sheâs alone.
Alert.
And pacing.
She sees me coming
and scurries to my side.
I scoop her up.
Feel her ruffled feathers
settle
in the safety
of my arms.
Three of Nannaâs chickens
never left the chicken yard.
Nanna and I
round up
three more.
But we cannot find
my Buttercup.
Not anywhere.
I check the barn.
Around the house.
Inside our hideaway.
I even check
the milkweed field.
But Buttercup is gone.
