Sense Sonnet - Pumper

Second Best

The crested penguin female does
Take a six month long ocean cruise.
Egg making's not on her mind, cuz
Most spent energy she does use
For swimming long and hard until
She gets back to land and can do
A second egg with focused skill.
Hatch success in egg number two,
While that first egg that formed at sea
Is small and doomed from the get go,
Nothing that it's cracked up to be,
Just wrong place, wrong time - doncha know!

The laid "egg"spelled on the first try,
But no one knows "egg"sactly why!
